Performance Based Logistics support of 44 F414 Engine components

NAVSUP Weapon System Support plans to award a five year Performance Based Logistics (PBL) contract in support of 17 Head of Family (HOF) National Item Identification Numbers (NIINs), covering 44 items, for General Electric F414 engine components (See Attachment A for list of items). This PBL contract is anticipated to be awarded to General Electric (GE) (Cage Code: 99207) located in Lynn, MA in August of 2026. Under the proposed contract, the awardee will stock, warehouse, repair, modify and/or replace, store and provide for shipment Ready-for-Issue (RFI) condition assets within negotiated supply response times. The PBL contract will require an integrated product life cycle approach whereby the awardee assumes responsibility for many management and support functions related to the PBL such as engineering and logistics support. The awardee will be required to meet established response times through component repair replacement, reliability oversight and inventory, configuration and obsolescence management.

The awardee will be required to partner with organic depots such as FRC-SE (Jacksonville, FL) in accordance with Title 10 United States Code requirements and to renew and/or execute new Commercial Services Agreements (CSA) and/or Public-Private Partnership (PPP) Cooperative Agreements.

The maximum period of performance for this effort will not exceed 5 years. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of 10 U.S.C. §3204(a)(1), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. The applicable PSC is 2840. The applicable NAICS code is 336412. All items covered by this PBL are subject to Buy American Act (BAA). There is no small business set aside assigned to this requirement. Absent Government approval of additional sources prior to award, the Government intends to negotiate a contract for this effort with General Electric (GE) (Cage Code: 99207) located in Lynn, MA. The government does not possess (or cannot provide) the data necessary to perform the required repairs or manufacture of the items.

All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. All responsible sources may identify their interest and provide capability statements in response to this notice. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all responses received within 15 days after date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Source Approval is required prior to award. WSS will not delay award while Source Approval is pending.

The subject items require suppliers secure Government source approval prior to contract award, as the items are aviation critical safety items and/or the technical data available has not been determined adequate to support repair via full and open competition. The time required for approval of a new source is normally such that an award cannot be delayed pending approval of a new source without negatively impacting fleet readiness. If you are not an approved source you must submit, together with your proposal, the information detailed in the NAVSUP WSS Source Approval Information Brochure for Repair and/or Spares. This brochure identifies technical data required to be submitted based on your company's experience in repair of the same or similar items. This brochure can be obtained at:

If your request for source approval is currently being evaluated at NAVSUP WSS, submit with your offer a copy of the cover letter that forwarded your request for source approval. Offers received which fail to provide all data required by the Source Approval Brochure or document previous submission of all data required by the Source Approval Brochure will not be considered for award under this solicitation.

Please note, if evaluation of a source approval request submitted hereunder cannot be processed in time and/or approval requirements preclude the ability to obtain subject items in time to meet Government requirements, award of the subject requirement will continue based on Fleet support needs.
