The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command awarded a $144,480.00 firm fixed-price purchase order to The Entwistle Company LLC, a for-profit limited liability company manufacturer, for the delivery of ARM ASSEMBLY,DEFECT. This contract award was not set aside for a specific business type.
The award was based on a pre-solicitation posted by the Naval Supply Systems Command Weapon Systems Support (NAVSUP WSS) seeking a contractor to manufacture the specified item, as the government did not possess or have access to the technical data required for production. The Entwistle Company was identified as the sole source able to meet the government's need, which was expected to be a commercial item customarily available in the marketplace. The contract has a completion date of November 2, 2020.
