Synop - NIIN:012212610

The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) is seeking a sole source procurement from Sikorsky for a Bifilar Assembly (NSN: 1615 012212610, P/N: 70107-28400-043) specifically used on the H60 helicopter platform. This pre-solicitation notice indicates a targeted procurement under FAR Part 15 provisions, with Sikorsky identified as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and the only known source for this repair part. The government currently lacks data rights to procure from alternative sources, which justifies the sole source approach. Electronic proposal procedures will be used, with the Request for Proposal (RFP) to be posted on NECO on 20 MAR 2025 and responses due by 25 MAR 2025. Interested organizations are invited to submit capabilities and qualifications via email to Samantha Freedman, with potential vendors having 15 days to identify any commercial item capabilities.

The procurement is not designated as a small business set-aside and will require Source Approval, though the procurement will not be delayed pending this approval. The anticipated contract award date is 30 JULY 2025, falling under the NAICS Category 336413 for Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing and PSC Category 1615 for Helicopter Rotor Blades, Drive Mechanisms, and Components. While specific contract value details are not explicitly stated, the procurement is focused on a critical repair part for military helicopter systems. The solicitation provides a relatively narrow window for response, with just five days between posting and response deadline. Vendors interested in this opportunity should carefully review the full RFP documentation and be prepared to demonstrate their specific capabilities for this specialized aircraft component.
