About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is procuring four units of a DME Interrogator SE, a commercial off-the-shelf radio navigation airborne equipment item identified by NSN 7R-5826-016574405-P8. This is a flight-critical component requiring government source approval prior to contract award due to the item's sensitive nature and limited technical data availability. Prospective contractors must submit either evidence of previous government source approval or comprehensive source approval documentation from the applicable NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support brochures demonstrating their production experience with identical or similar items. The government will evaluate proposals based on the contractor's ability to meet delivery requirements and provide all mandatory source approval documentation; offers lacking complete required data will be deemed non-responsive and ineligible for award consideration. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on February 13, 2026, with a response deadline of March 31, 2026, providing interested parties approximately six weeks to prepare and submit their proposals.
This procurement carries no set-aside designation and is open to any qualified contractor meeting the source approval requirements. The specific award value and budget allocation are not disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice. The contract specifies a quantity of four units with delivery on an FOB Origin basis, though the full delivery timeline is not detailed in the available documentation. No incumbent contractor or current supplier information is provided in the notice. Contractors not currently approved as government sources should note that the approval process timeline is typically insufficient to permit contract award delays, meaning unapproved sources may face significant disadvantages unless they can expedite their source approval submissions in parallel with their proposal preparation.
Notice text
NSN 7R-5826-016574405-P8, REF NR 066-50013-1511, QTY 4 EA, DELIVERY FOB ORIGIN. This part is a commercial/nondevelopmental/off-the-shelf item. Commercial item descriptions, commercial vendor catalog or price lists or commercial manuals assigned a technical manual number apply. The subject item requires Government source approval prior to contract award, as the item is flight critical and/or the technical data available has not been determined adequate to support acquisition via full and open competition. Only the source(s) previously approved by the Government for this item have been solicited. The time required for approval of a new source is normally such that an award cannot be delayed pending approval of a new source. If you are not an approved source you must submit, together with your proposal, the information detailed in one of the NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (NAVSUP WSS) Source Approval Information Brochures listed below. Spares: https://www.navsup.navy.mil/NAVSUP-Enterprise/NAVSUP-Weapon-Systems-Sup port/Business-Opps/ Repair: https://www.navsup.navy.mil/NAVSUP-Enterprise/NAVSUP -Weapon-Systems-Support/Business-Opps/ technical data required to be submitted based on your company's experience in production of the same or similar item, or if this is an item you have never made. If your request for source approval is currently being evaluated at NAVSUP WSS submit with your offer a copy of the cover letter which forwarded your request for source approval. Offers received which fail to provide all data required by the Source Approval Brochure or document previous submission of all data required by the Source Approval Brochure will not be considered for award under this solicitation. Please note, if evaluation of a source approval request submitted hereunder cannot be processed in time and/or approval requirements preclude the ability to obtain subject items in time to meet Government requirements, award of the subject requirement may continue based on Fleet support needs. The NAVSUP WSS Commercial Item Identification Brochure is now available at: "https://www.navsup.navy.mil/NAVSUP-Enterprise/NAVSUP-Weapon-Systems-Support/Bus iness-Opps/"
