About this opportunity
The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) at Patuxent River, MD, intends to procure hardware components with known Last Time Buy (LTB) dates to address Diminishing Manufacturing Sources (DMS) issues within MQ-4C Triton Unmanned Aircraft Systems. This procurement will be conducted as a sole source, firm-fixed-price contract under existing Basic Ordering Agreement N0001925G0003, justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204 (a)(l) and FAR Subpart 6.302-1 because only one responsible source exists that can satisfy the agency's requirements. The contract falls under NAICS code 336411 (Aircraft Manufacturing) and PSC code 1550 (Unmanned Aircraft). Interested parties may submit capability statements by August 14, 2025, though this notice is published for informational purposes only and is not a request for competitive proposals. All written responses must be submitted via email to Suresh Jafar at suresh.jafar.civ@us.navy.mil, with no phone inquiries accepted.
This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and will be awarded solely to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (NGSC) of San Diego, CA, which serves as the exclusive designer, developer, manufacturer, integrator, and producer of MQ-4C Triton air vehicles and ground stations. The government retains complete discretion in determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement based on capability statements received. No specific contract values, quantities, or performance timelines are disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice. Potential subcontracting opportunities should be pursued directly through NGSC rather than the government. The government emphasizes that no commitments exist to issue solicitations or make awards, and interested parties participate at their own financial risk until a formal contract award occurs.
