Nose Radar I/R Equipment Lift Set

The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division at Lakehurst, New Jersey intends to procure Radar Antenna Removal/Install Equipment (Part Number D0831E0001-1001) for the P-8A Poseidon Program in support of the United States Navy and various Foreign Military Sales countries. This procurement will be conducted on a sole source basis under the statutory authority of Title 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, which permits non-competitive procurement when only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements. The Government has determined that Boeing, the Original Equipment Manufacturer and exclusive data right holder, is the only vendor capable of meeting the requirement due to proprietary system specifications. Although this is a sole source procurement, the Government will accept responses from other vendors through February 17, 2026, at 10:00 am EST to determine whether to open the requirement to competitive bidding. All inquiries must be submitted in writing to Scott Bestreski at scott.a.bestreski.civ@us.navy.mil; telephone inquiries will not be accepted.

This procurement involves no set-aside designations and identifies Boeing (CAGE Code 0PXV4) of Saint Louis, Missouri as the intended sole source contractor. The pre-solicitation notice does not disclose a specific contract award value or budget range. No quantity information or service timeline details are provided in the notice. Interested parties responding to this notice should understand that any information submitted will be considered solely to evaluate whether a competitive procurement should be conducted, and the Government retains complete discretion in making this determination. The notice emphasizes that information provided is subject to change and does not bind the Government to any solicitation or contract award.
