The Department of Defense, specifically the Department of the Navy through NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support, is seeking proposals for the procurement of 15 units of the Backplane Assembly, identified by NSN 7R-7021-016203759-BL and reference number 267A735-5. This procurement is critical as the item is flight critical, and the government requires source approval prior to contract award due to the lack of adequate technical data for competitive solicitation. Interested vendors must provide the necessary documentation as outlined in the NAVSUP WSS Source Approval Information Brochure, and offers that do not include this information will not be considered. For inquiries, potential bidders can contact Dana L. Scott at (215) 697-0273 or via email at dana.scott@navy.mil.
