About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command is seeking to procure 11 Observer Aircraft Seats, identified by National Stock Number 7R-1680-016516051-P8. This is a pre-solicitation notice for a commercial, off-the-shelf item that requires government source approval prior to contract award due to the flight-critical nature of the equipment. Potential vendors must submit detailed technical information through the NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support Source Approval Information Brochure to be considered. The government intends to solicit and negotiate with currently approved sources under FAR 6.302-1 authority, with proposals being accepted within 45 days of publication (30 days if awarded under an existing Basic Ordering Agreement). Interested parties must demonstrate capability to satisfy the government's requirements, with all proposals receiving consideration, though the final determination to compete remains solely at the government's discretion.
The pre-solicitation notice indicates no specific set-aside designations for this procurement. The contract is subject to Free Trade Agreements and potentially the Buy American Act, depending on specific DFARS clauses included in the final solicitation. While the exact award value is not specified, the procurement is for 11 units of the observer aircraft seat to be delivered FOB Origin. The procurement process allows for potential new sources to submit approval requests, though the government notes that the time required for source approval may be extensive. Vendors without previous approval must submit comprehensive technical data demonstrating their capability to produce the item. Additionally, if a vendor currently has a source approval request under evaluation at NAVSUP WSS, they should include a copy of the cover letter with their offer.
