FMS Repair of NIIN 014812876/ CABLE ASSEMBLY, SPEC

The Naval Supply Systems Command is conducting a sources sought notice for repair services of a CABLE ASSEMBLY, SPEC with NIIN 014812876 and part number A14G2697-3, which supports F-18 aircraft operations. The procurement is currently structured as a sole source arrangement with The Boeing Company due to insufficient government data to support procurement from alternative suppliers. Interested parties must submit capability statements demonstrating their ability to perform these specialized cable assembly repair services, with Source Approval being a mandatory requirement for firms not already approved by the government. Submissions must be made electronically via email to Jessica.t.grzywna.civ@us.navy.mil within 15 days of the August 21, 2025 publication date, establishing a September 5, 2025 deadline for responses. The government reserves the right to determine whether to proceed with competition based on the capability statements received through this market research effort.

This procurement does not utilize any small business set-aside designations and operates under NAICS code 335931 for Current-Carrying Wiring Device Manufacturing and PSC code 5995 for Cable, Cord, and Wire Assemblies for Communication Equipment. The Boeing Company appears to be the incumbent contractor and current sole source supplier for these specialized cable assembly repair services. The notice does not specify contract values, quantities, or performance timelines, as this represents a preliminary market research phase rather than a formal solicitation. The procurement supports Foreign Military Sales requirements, indicating this work involves maintaining critical components for international F-18 customers. The government's emphasis on Source Approval requirements suggests these repairs involve proprietary or highly specialized technical processes that require formal authorization to perform.
