Bearing, flanged

The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command is seeking to procure nine (9) Flanged Bearings with National Stock Number 1H-3120-016451590-D4, specifically under Technical Drawing Package (TDP) Version 005. The proposed contract will be delivered to Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery, Maine, with the government intending to negotiate with a single source under FAR 6.302-1 authority. Potential vendors have 45 days from the publication date (until April 17, 2025) to submit proposals, capability statements, or express interest in the opportunity. While the notice is not a competitive proposal request, the government will consider all submissions received within the specified timeframe. The determination to proceed with a single-source procurement remains solely at the government's discretion.

This pre-solicitation notice indicates no specific set-aside designations for small businesses or other preferred vendor categories. The procurement falls under Product Service Code (PSC) 3120 for Plain, Unmounted Bearings, suggesting a specialized technical component requirement. Detailed evaluation criteria were not explicitly outlined, but the government will assess submitted proposals based on capability and responsiveness to the specific technical requirements. The procurement appears to be a targeted, specific acquisition with a relatively small quantity of nine units, indicating a potentially specialized or critical replacement part for naval equipment. The notice provides flexibility for interested vendors to demonstrate their capacity to meet the naval shipyard's precise bearing specifications.
