About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command is seeking to procure six aircraft rudder components (P/N 74A240300-1023) for F-18 Aircraft as part of a Foreign Military Sales (FMS) spares contract. The solicitation (RFQ: N00383-20-Q-M376) requires potential contractors to have government source approval for these flight-critical components, which is a strict prerequisite for contract award. Interested vendors must submit comprehensive technical data according to the NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support Source Approval Information Brochure, demonstrating their capability to produce the specified item. Potential contractors who have not previously been approved must include detailed production experience information with their proposal. The solicitation was posted on January 21, 2025, with proposal responses due by February 4, 2025, and potential bidders can contact Kate Hull at (215) 697-6646 for additional information.
The contract opportunity is not set aside for any specific business classification and falls under NAICS category 336413 for Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing. The procurement is specifically for six individual rudder units, classified under Product Service Code 1680 for Miscellaneous Aircraft Accessories and Components. While specific award values are not disclosed, the solicitation emphasizes that fleet support needs may take precedence if source approval processes could potentially delay the procurement. Notably, the Navy reserves the right to continue the award process even if source approval evaluations cannot be completed within the standard timeframe. Potential contractors must be prepared to demonstrate technical competence, provide comprehensive documentation, and meet the stringent government approval requirements for these specialized aircraft components.

The subject items require Government source approval prior to contract award, as the item is flight critical and/or the technical data available has not been determined adequate to support acquisition via full and open competition. Only the source(s) previously approved by the Government for this item have been solicited. The time required for approval of a new source is normally such that an award cannot be delayed pending approval of a new source.
If you are not an approved source you must submit, together with your proposal, the information detailed in the NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (NAVSUP WSS) Source Approval Information Brochure listed below.

This brochure identifies the technical data required to be submitted based on your company’s experience in production of the same or similar item, or if this is an item you have never made. If your request for source approval is currently being evaluated at NAVSUP WSS submit with your offer a copy of the cover letter which forwarded your request for source approval. Offers received which fail to provide all data required by the Source Approval Brochure or document previous submission of all data required by the Source Approval Brochure will not be considered for award under this solicitation.
Please note, if evaluation of a source approval request submitted hereunder cannot be processed in time and/or approval requirements preclude the ability to obtain subject items in time to meet Government requirements, award of the subject requirement may continue based on Fleet support needs.
