Shaft, drive

The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command is seeking to procure one drive shaft under NSN 7R-1680-016823671-H5, categorized as miscellaneous aircraft accessories and components. This is a sole source requirement because the Government does not possess sufficient, accurate, or legible data to contract with sources other than the current approved supplier. Contractors must obtain Government Source Approval prior to award, and those not already approved must submit all required information detailed in the NAVSUP WSS Source Approval Brochure available online. The procurement is subject to Free Trade Agreements and the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement requirements. The solicitation due date is September 22, 2025, and interested parties should contact Lauren Phillips at lauren.n.phillips6.civ@us.navy.mil for information or questions regarding this opportunity.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designation and is open to all qualified contractors who can meet the Government Source Approval requirements. The contract calls for delivery of one unit (1 EA) with FOB Origin terms, meaning the contractor bears responsibility for transportation costs and risk until the goods reach the specified origin point. No specific incumbent contractor or current supplier is named in the notice, though the sole source designation suggests an existing approved source relationship. The notice does not specify contract value or budget ranges, focusing instead on the technical requirements and approval processes necessary for potential contractors to participate. The extended timeline until September 2025 provides substantial time for contractors to complete the source approval process if they are not currently qualified suppliers.
