NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support plans to buy 5 repaired or modified communications processors (NSN 0R-5895-017076283-H1) from a single source, with delivery FOB origin. Only sources the Government has already approved were solicited. Other companies can still say they are interested and capable, but must send source approval information with their offer.
Watch out for
Sole-source intent. The Government plans to negotiate with only one source, so a new bidder has a low chance unless it can show it can do the work. The proposed contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1.
Source approval needed. The item is flight critical or lacks adequate technical data, and approving a new source takes longer than the award timeline. The time required for approval of a new source is normally such that an award cannot be delayed pending approval of a new source.
Incomplete offers will not be considered. Offers missing the required source approval data are dropped from consideration. Offers received which fail to provide all data required by the Source Approval Brochure
Read from the notice text only.
