About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command is procuring 35 units of Drive Link Bearings (NSN: 1680-016768849) through a sole source procurement. This requirement is being synopsized as a sole source acquisition to Lord Corporation (CAGE: 76005), the Original Equipment Manufacturer and only known source capable of providing these items, as the government does not own the technical data or manufacturing rights necessary to solicit additional sources. Lord Corporation is the approved source for this material, though other capable firms identified on the controlling drawings may contact the government point of contact to express interest. The government intends to solicit and negotiate with only this one responsible source, as no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Interested parties may submit capability statements, proposals, or quotations for consideration, and firms wishing to become approved manufacturers must submit a Source Approval Request (SAR), though this procurement will not be delayed to await SAR approval. The solicitation due date is May 10, 2026, and interested parties have 15 days to identify their capability to provide a commercial item alternative.
This procurement carries no set-aside designation and is being conducted under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) using FAR Part 13 procedures, with the government declining to utilize FAR Part 12 commercial item acquisition policies. Lord Corporation is the anticipated incumbent and sole source for award. The procurement involves a quantity of 35 units with no specific award value disclosed in the synopsis. The place of performance is Erie, Pennsylvania 16509. The solicitation was posted on April 13, 2026, with responses due by May 10, 2026, providing potential offerors with approximately 27 days to prepare and submit their responses.
