About this opportunity

The Naval Supply Systems Command is seeking to procure one unit of a backshell electrical connector, classified under NSN 1R-5935-LLF02M009-P8 with reference number 447HW328XM2122. This procurement involves a commercial off-the-shelf item that requires government source approval prior to contract award due to its flight-critical nature and limited technical data availability for full and open competition. Only previously approved sources have been solicited for this opportunity, though new sources may submit approval requests along with detailed technical documentation as outlined in NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support information brochures. The government will accept early and incremental deliveries and considers contractual documents "issued" when deposited in mail, transmitted by facsimile, or sent electronically. The proposal submission deadline is August 19, 2025, with delivery terms specified as FOB Origin.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and is open to approved commercial sources. The contract calls for a quantity of one unit of the electrical connector component, with the government expressing preference for early delivery schedules. No specific contract value or budget range is disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice. The timeline extends through August 2025 for proposal submissions, though contractors already undergoing source approval evaluation at NAVSUP WSS must include copies of their approval request cover letters with their offers. The procurement emphasizes the critical nature of the component and the government's requirement for proven, reliable suppliers due to the flight safety implications of the electrical connector system.
