About this opportunity

The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command issued this sole-source justification notice for a ten-year Blanket Purchase Agreement with Toray Advanced Composites USA, Inc. to procure specialized resin systems used for repairing radomes on various military aircraft. The procurement encompasses six different pre-preg adhesive and film materials totaling 14,850 yards and 13,200 square feet over the contract period, with an estimated value of $6 million and a 12-month lead time following order placement. The sole-source justification is based on Toray's proprietary BTCy-1A and BTCy-1 Cyanate Ester resin systems and proprietary manufacturing processes, which the company declined to license or share technical data for with the government on December 13, 2023. Utilizing alternative vendors would require extensive and costly flight testing estimated at over $75 million, introduce significant delays to repair operations, and potentially compromise warfighter readiness. The contract authority is effective through August 30, 2034, with the award made on September 27, 2024.
