PEEK fasteners, part #154315-001

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Philadelphia has issued a Special Notice for PEEK fasteners, specifically part #154315-001, through the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA). This federal contract opportunity is classified under the NAICS category of Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing (NAICS 332722) and the PSC category of Bolts (PSC 5306). The opportunity is being pursued as a Sole Source procurement, meaning the government intends to negotiate exclusively with one source under FAR 13.106-1 (b) (1) (i). The Special Notice was posted on April 8, 2025, with a response deadline of April 23, 2025. Material Sciences LLC has been identified as the intended sole source for these fasteners.

The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to procure PEEK fasteners through a direct procurement process with a pre-selected vendor. Contractors should note that this is not a competitive solicitation, and Material Sciences LLC is the only anticipated source for these specific components. Any interested parties or potential alternative suppliers who wish to challenge the sole source determination must contact the contracting officer, Jillian Randazzo, via email at jillian.randazzo.civ@us.navy.mil before the response deadline. No phone calls will be accepted regarding this opportunity. The procurement is for a defense-related agency, specifically the Naval Sea Systems Command, and follows a streamlined acquisition approach that allows for direct negotiation with a single vendor when deemed appropriate under federal acquisition regulations. Potential contractors should carefully review the specific requirements and understand that this is a targeted, non-competitive procurement process.
