About this opportunity

The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command awarded contract N0010426CBA16 to Aqua-Chem, Inc. on a sole-source basis on July 9, 2026, for procurement of a COOLER, BOWR SAMPLE spare part (NSN 1HM 4420 015993843 X4, P/N 703-D-7593(MOD)-LVL1) required for the Nuclear Reactor Program.

The justification cites 10 USC 3204(A)(1), only one responsible source, on the basis that Aqua-Chem is the only manufacturer possessing the rights to the underlying technical data and drawings required to produce a part meeting the complex operational and reliability standards. The Government does not own the data or manufacturing rights needed to procure this item from alternative sources, and reverse engineering has been determined uneconomical. Market research conducted through multiple Navy systems (ITIMP, Web FLIS, ADSARS, Enterprise Business System, and IRPOD) confirmed the sole source. The acquisition was synopsized on May 28, 2026, with a class waiver of the requirement to post a Request for Information or Sources Sought Notice applied per a 15 March 2019 waiver. Expected final delivery is November 16, 2026. Place of performance is Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania with NAVSUP WSS.
