About this opportunity

The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) at NAS Patuxent River, Maryland, intends to negotiate and award a sole-source order for CH-53K aircraft retrofit services under an existing Basic Ordering Agreement with Sikorsky, A Lockheed Martin Company. The procurement involves the acquisition of four DDSR retrofit kits and the installation of four DDSR and DI-Medium retrofit kits specifically designed for the CH-53K rotary wing aircraft. This contract action falls under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, which permits sole-source procurement when only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements. The government has determined that no other type of supplies or services will meet their specific operational needs for this aircraft modification project. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on August 13, 2025, with a due date of August 28, 2025, providing a relatively short response window of fifteen days.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and is structured as a sole-source award to Sikorsky, A Lockheed Martin Company, located at 6900 Main Street, Stratford, Connecticut. The contract involves specific quantities of four retrofit kits for procurement and four installations for both DDSR and DI-Medium systems on CH-53K aircraft. The work will be performed under the existing Basic Ordering Agreement N00019-23-G-0002, which was established in 2023 to facilitate ongoing procurement activities with the contractor. Companies interested in pursuing subcontracting opportunities under this prime contract are directed to contact Jason Lockwood, the Sikorsky Subcontracting Manager, at 203-225-3657. The procurement falls under NAICS code 336413 for Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing and PSC code 1520 for Rotary Wing Aircraft, reflecting the specialized nature of the helicopter modification work.
