manufacturing source(s) specified on a source control or selected item drawing

as defined by the current version of DoD-STD-100. Suitable technical data,

Government data rights, or manufacturing knowledge are not available to permit

acquisition from other sources, nor qualification testing of another part, nor

use of a second source part in the intended application. Although, by

DoD-STD-100 definition, altered and selected items shall have an adequate

technical data package, data review discloses that required data or data rights

are not in Government possession and cannot be economically obtained. 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 the "https://www.neco.navy.mil/sar.aspx" Naval Inventory Control

Point Philadelphia Source Approval Information Brochure. This brochure

identifies 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 NAVICP-P, 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 NAVICP Commercial Item Identification Brochure

is now available at: "https://www.neco.navy.mil/cib.aspx" -SEE NOTES 9, 22, 26
