About this opportunity

Naval Air Systems Command intends to negotiate and award a cost-plus-fixed-fee task order under the Raytheon Corporate Basic Ordering Agreement N0001925G0009 on a sole-source basis to Raytheon for Leading-Edge Flap thicker rain erosion tape analysis for the F/A-18 aircraft, with responses due by August 29, 2026. The Government is exercising sole-source authority under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.103-1 because Raytheon is the original equipment manufacturer and sole designer, developer, and integrator of the rain erosion tape for the LEF system. Raytheon possesses the exclusive technical data necessary to fulfill the requirements; the Government does not own a complete F/A-18 drawing package with Government Purpose Rights, rendering only Raytheon capable of performing the work. This notice is not a request for proposal and does not constitute a competitive solicitation. All inquiries and concerns should be directed to Contract Specialist Laurelle Brown-Hill at laurelle.r.brown-hill.civ@us.navy.mil. Companies interested in subcontracting opportunities should contact Raytheon directly at christopher.short@rtx.com.
