The Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) Weapon Systems Support Philadelphia is seeking repair services for a Motor Driven Cable Reeling Machine (NIIN: 015064719, Part Number: 8050470-1) used on H1 Aircraft. This procurement requires specialized repair capabilities for aviation equipment under NAICS code 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing) and PSC code 1680 (Miscellaneous Aircraft Accessories And Components). L3 Technologies Inc. has been identified as the sole source contractor due to their status as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and the only known provider capable of performing these repair services. The government intends to negotiate with only one responsible source under 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), indicating a sole source justification based on unique technical requirements. The approximate solicitation issue date is September 25, 2025, with responses due by October 25, 2025, and interested organizations may submit capabilities and qualifications via email to Grace McGinley.

This opportunity is designated as an 8(a) Sole Source procurement, though the synopsis indicates it is not structured as a Small Business Set-Aside, creating some apparent inconsistency in the set-aside classification. L3 Technologies Inc. appears to be the anticipated contractor given their OEM status and exclusive repair capabilities for this specialized aircraft equipment. The contract is planned as a one-year agreement with an anticipated award date of January 2026, utilizing electronic procedures with the RFP to be posted on NECO. The procurement will include Buy American Act clauses and Unique Item Identification (UID) requirements, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations for defense-related equipment. The timeline spans approximately four months from solicitation issuance to contract award, reflecting the specialized nature of the repair services required.
