About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command has awarded contract N0016426GJQ32 to Meggitt Defense Systems Inc. on a sole-source basis for procurement of Liquid Air Palletized Systems (LAPS) Kits (Part Number 708999-1), Air Handling Unit (AHU) Kits (Part Number 703099-1) and future variants, related sub-systems, repair parts, and associated technical data for the P-8A aircraft platform, with an estimated total contract value of $24.5 million for fiscal years 2026 through 2030.
The sole-source justification rests on Meggitt's exclusive design, development, qualification, and manufacturing capability for these components to meet P-8A aircraft integration requirements. The government lacks adequate design data to support competition, and Meggitt has declined to license or sell proprietary data. Market research via SAM.gov request for information on January 14, 2025 yielded one response lacking required technical expertise; a synopsis posted March 6, 2025 received no responses. The initial job order includes up to twelve LAPS units and thirty-two AHUs with long-lead spares. Services encompass non-recurring engineering, upgrades, configuration management, reliability and maintainability analysis, failure analysis, corrective actions, obsolescence management, logistics and product support, maintenance and repairs, and technical data generation. The award vehicle is a Basic Ordering Agreement with job orders. Place of performance is Irvine, California (Meggitt Defense Systems Inc., CAGE 62228). Authority to act under this Class J&A expires September 30, 2030.
