Basic Ordering Agreement N0038321GXQ01

This is a multiple-award Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) awarded by the Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP), a U.S. Navy defense agency, to General Nucleonics, Inc., a woman-owned small business. The $14.8 million BOA, awarded on September 13, 2021, is for the repair of various components of the H-53 helicopter. Under this BOA, NAVSUP has issued numerous firm fixed-price delivery orders to General Nucleonics for the procurement of specialized electronic components, such as pressure indicators, signal processors, and helicopter detectors, to support naval aviation and fleet logistics programs. The delivery orders, valued from $95,000 to over $5 million, do not have set-aside designations. General Nucleonics' facility in Pomona, California is the place of performance for these contracts. The BOA demonstrates the company's critical role in maintaining and supporting U.S. Navy rotary-wing aircraft systems by providing specialized electronic parts and repair services across various military platforms.

The original solicitation was a sole-source requirement, as the government lacked sufficient technical data to contract with any other source. The solicitation required vendors to obtain government source approval prior to award, as the items were subject to Free Trade Agreements and the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement. Offers that failed to provide the required source approval data would not be considered. This contracting approach ensures the Navy can efficiently procure the necessary electronic components from an approved, reliable supplier to maintain fleet readiness and support its H-53 helicopter operations.
