The Department of Defense, through the NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support office, is seeking to procure nine units of a spare part identified as the Reel, Shoulder Harness (NSN 1R-1680-016909801-BL, P/N 115E9759G1). This procurement is limited to the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), as the government does not possess the necessary data or rights to source this part from alternative suppliers, emphasizing the critical nature of this component for military operations. Interested vendors must submit a Source Approval Request if they are not already approved to manufacture this item, as the procurement process will not be delayed for SAR approvals. Proposals are due within 45 days of the notice, with an anticipated award date in January 2025; inquiries can be directed to Michael J. Brown at MICHAEL.J.BROWN43@NAVY.MIL.
