Purchase Order N0038320PP343

The Naval Supply Systems Command awarded a $578,846.03 firm fixed-price purchase order to General Atomics on September 25, 2020, for the repair or modification of 50 position sensor blocks (NSN 7R-1680-016454218-EY, TDP VER 002). This award was made without a set-aside designation and is performance-based in San Diego, California, with an ultimate completion date of September 27, 2021. The position sensors are flight-critical components for naval applications, and the solicitation was limited to government-approved sources due to the restricted technical data available and the specialized nature of the repair work. General Atomics, a leading defense contractor headquartered in San Diego, was selected as the sole source based on its prior government approval for this specific item.

This contract supports the Navy's aircraft carrier and naval aviation modernization initiatives, where position sensors are critical to aircraft operations and safety systems. General Atomics maintains a strong track record with the Naval Supply Systems Command, including a Basic Ordering Agreement for repair and sustainment services for advanced naval systems such as the Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS) and Advanced Arresting Gear (AAG). The firm fixed-price structure ensures cost predictability for the Navy while leveraging General Atomics' specialized expertise in maintaining flight-critical naval aviation components.
