NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (NAVSUP WSS) Philadelphia plans to solicit a sole source contract with MEGGITT NORTH HOLLYWOOD INC. for the procurement of specific parts used in the repair of the F/A-18A/D aircraft. The items include a regulating valve that the Government lacks adequate data to source from alternate suppliers. This contract action falls under FAR 6.302-1, permitting procurement from a single source due to the unique qualifications required. Interested parties may submit capability statements within 15 days of the notice, but proposals will be considered only if they meet strict qualification requirements laid out in the relevant solicitation guidelines. Furthermore, organizations not previously approved to manufacture the required material must submit a Source Approval Request, as delays for SAR approvals are not permitted. The solicitation emphasizes that it is not a competitive bidding opportunity, and electronic submissions are preferred, while physical requests will not be accommodated. The expected contract reflects the Government's commitment to maintaining operational readiness through direct sourcing of necessary parts.

This document outlines a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for supplies and services related to the repair and restoration of government-owned articles, specifically NSN 7R4820013485128, a regulator part. It establishes procurement responsibilities, delivery instructions, and contact details with NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support in Philadelphia. The contractor must provide labor, materials, and equipment necessary for the repairs, adhering to specific quality standards and regulations. The SOW (Statement of Work) details requirements for inspection, repair, and modification procedures, as well as obligations for reporting on the condition of repaired items. Contractor employees must also obtain appropriate security clearances and comply with background investigation requirements dictated by national security policies. Provisions for over and above work, parts control, and configuration management are included, highlighting changes to repairs, materials, and documentation protocols. Overall, this RFQ integrates various federal regulations and clauses, facilitating the government’s procurement process while ensuring compliance with security and operational standards for contracted services. It underscores the importance of meticulous coordination between the contractor and government representatives during the execution of the contract.
