The Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) Weapon Systems Support division, Philadelphia is soliciting repair services for two critical aviation components: a Valve, Modulating, EC (NSN 7R1660011618379, Part Number 70309-23900-103) and a Dampener, Vibration (NSN 7R1615013470735, Part Number 70106-28000-048), both required for the MH-60R platform. This is a sole source procurement with an anticipated award date in December 2025 and a response deadline of November 30, 2026. The valve is designated as a Critical Application Item (CAI) while the dampener is classified as a Critical Safety Item (CSI), requiring contractors to return both items to acceptable condition within specified timelines of 69 days for the valve and 119 days for the dampener, respectively. Contractors not already approved to manufacture these items must submit a Source Approval Request (SAR) to be considered. The solicitation will be electronically posted to NECO, and no telephone requests or hard copies will be accepted.

This solicitation carries no small business set-aside designation and is being pursued on a sole source basis with Sikorsky as the intended contractor. The procurement involves one unit each of the valve and dampener, with the repair work to be performed at the Philadelphia location. Packaging and preservation requirements are governed by MIL-STD-2073-1E and MIL-STD-129, with aviation material requiring government-furnished reusable containers that must be requested at least 30 days prior to shipment for repair contracts. While no specific contract value is disclosed in the solicitation notice, the critical nature of both components and their application to military helicopter systems suggests this is a mission-critical procurement. The classified PSC Category 1660 (Aircraft Air Conditioning, Heating, and Pressurizing Equipment) and NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing) further specify the technical nature of the work required.
