The Department of Defense, through the NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support office, is conducting market research to identify contractors capable of repairing the commercial item NSN 7RH 4820 015766228 P8, specifically a regulating valve used on the P-8A Poseidon aircraft. The procurement aims to find eligible small businesses, including service-disabled veteran-owned, HUBZone, and 8(a) certified firms, that can manufacture or support the repair of this unmodified commercial common item, which is critical for the operational capabilities of the U.S. Navy's maritime patrol aircraft. Interested contractors are required to submit their qualifications and capabilities by January 22, 2024, at 3:00 PM (Eastern time) to Mackenzie Cannataro at mackenzie.cannataro@navy.mil, as the results will inform whether the requirement will be set aside for small businesses or procured through full and open competition.
