The NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (NAVSUP WSS) Philadelphia seeks to procure repair services on a sole source basis from Thales Defense & Security, Inc. for sonar dome components. This procurement involves seven units (NSN: 7R 5845 145887069, PN: 44035965AK) designated under FMS repair due to the specificity of the repair parts and their proprietary nature.

Interested parties may submit capability statements within 15 days of the notice, although the contract is expected to be awarded to the specified sole source, with no small business set-asides applicable. The solicitation is anticipated to be published electronically starting on July 1, 2025, with responses due by August 1, 2025. Buy American clauses will be applied, ensuring compliance with existing trade regulations. The notice emphasizes the limited competition scope while providing opportunities for potential vendors to express interest in the project.
