About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is seeking to procure 23 solenoid valves (NSN 4810-014545076, Part Number 1730-00-7) for FA-18 aircraft variants A-D, E/F, and G (Growler). This acquisition represents a sole source procurement under FAR 6.302, as there is currently only one approved manufacturer, Northrop Grumman (CAGE 76823), though other manufacturers may compete by submitting a complete source approval package. The item is classified as a Critical Safety Item, and the government does not possess approved technical data packages or specifications for this procurement. Contract awards will be evaluated based on a combination of price, past performance, and other factors outlined in the forthcoming solicitation. The solicitation is scheduled to be issued on October 24, 2025, with a closing date of November 24, 2025.
This procurement operates under an unrestricted acquisition with no set-aside designations applied. Northrop Grumman serves as the current approved source and large business manufacturer for this solenoid valve component. The contract will be structured as a firm fixed-price arrangement requiring delivery of 23 units within 362 days after receipt of order to DLA Distribution San Diego. The procurement follows FOB Origin terms with inspection and acceptance occurring at the origin point, and contractors must utilize the SPRS/PPIRS system for compliance reporting. While no specific contract value is disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, the relatively small quantity of 23 units suggests a focused replacement or maintenance-driven procurement effort.
