Parker Meggitt Ring Accelerometers.

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division (NSWCCD), part of the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command, intends to procure 4 Ring Accelerometers (Part Number 35427EM4T) from Parker Meggitt on a sole source basis under a firm fixed price contract. This specialized equipment is required for the OHIO Class SSBN Monitoring Subsystem, where brand or part number deviations are unacceptable to maintain system compatibility and engineering support capabilities. The procurement is being processed under FAR Part 13.106-1(b) as a non-competitive acquisition, with the government determining that only Parker Meggitt is reasonably available as the original equipment manufacturer. While this is not a competitive solicitation, interested parties may submit capabilities statements demonstrating their ability to meet all specifications and requirements, including price, FOB point, contact information, GSA contract number if applicable, business size, and payment terms. The deadline for capabilities statements is 10:00 AM EDT on August 28, 2025, with all inquiries directed to Tracy McDonough at the specified Navy email address.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and specifically targets Parker Meggitt as the sole source contractor and original equipment manufacturer for these specialized accelerometers. The contract value was not disclosed in the available documentation, though the procurement falls under the simplified acquisition threshold and involves the purchase of exactly 4 units with National Stock Number 6680010905394. The delivery timeline extends to July 28, 2026, indicating a nearly one-year performance period for manufacturing and delivery of the specialized equipment. The place of performance is listed as Westlake, MD, though the actual delivery destination is the Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division Det Puget Sound in Silverdale, WA. The government retains sole discretion in determining whether to compete this purchase order, despite allowing for capabilities statements from other potential sources.
