About this file
This document is a Justification for Sole Source procurement for CVN 68 Class Main Engine High Pressure (HP) turbine components. Curtiss-Wright is the sole authorized manufacturer for two forward journal bearings, which are required by 6/28/25. The justification highlights that Curtiss-Wright exclusively possesses the proprietary design for these specialized undersized bearings, with unique characteristics including proprietary OEM specifications and nozzle plate caulking strip forgings. The document cites multiple reasons for sole source procurement, including proprietary data limitations, compatibility with existing systems, and being the only entity capable of providing these specific journal bearings for the naval engine turbines. The procurement is for the Defense Logistics Agency Maritime Puget Sound, with the manufacturer located in Chesapeake, VA, and can be contacted at 757-494-3800.
