About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command issued a Sole Source Justification Notice on January 14, 2026, for a modification to an existing contract awarded to Timken Gears & Services, Inc. on December 4, 2025, under contract number N0040626PS017. The modification extends technical representative assistance for Main Reduction Gear (MRG) repair and testing at the Ship Repair Facility and Japan Regional Maintenance Center in Yokosuka, Japan, increasing on-site days from 10 to 15 and adding a second testing trip, while also procuring four bearings with connector assemblies and 24 locknuts. The justification for sole source procurement is based on unusual and compelling urgency stemming from a critical C4 CASREP related to unusual noise in the MRG that affects the naval vessel's propulsion system; Timken is the only qualified provider due to their exclusive possession of proprietary drawings and specifications originally acquired from the equipment designer. The Navy's market research confirmed no other vendors could meet the requirement, and the modification is essential to restore operational capability and support national tasking, with the non-operational vessel incurring substantial daily costs. The contract was funded through Fiscal Year 2026 Operations and Maintenance, Navy appropriations, though specific award values were not disclosed in the justification documentation.
