The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) Weapon Systems Support Philadelphia is conducting a competitive procurement for aircraft struts under National Stock Number (NSN) 7RH 5996 016878886, part number 2012J-100 and 71250-33810-102. This acquisition will be conducted using FAR Part 15 procedures rather than commercial item acquisition methods. The Government has established Source Approval Statement requirements for this NSN, meaning contractors must either be pre-approved manufacturers or submit a Source Approval Request (SAR) to qualify; however, the procurement will not be delayed pending SAR approval. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications by email to Jacob.r.wells1@navy.mil. The solicitation will be posted to NECO and conducted entirely through electronic procedures with no hard copies distributed. All proposals received within 45 days of the synopsis publication will be considered by the Government for determination of whether to conduct the full competitive procurement.

This procurement carries no small business set-aside designation. The Government has identified two approved source contractors: Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation (CAGE 78286) and Ontic Engineering (CAGE 45934), with award expected to be made to one of these firms. The Government intends to procure a total of six units on an FOB Origin delivery basis. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on April 10, 2024, with a due date of March 25, 2026, and an anticipated award date of June 2024. No specific contract value or budget range is disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice. The solicitation will utilize electronic procedures exclusively, and interested firms should direct inquiries and capability submissions to the identified contracting officer's representative.
