About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Military Sealift Command issued a sole-source justification notice on July 9, 2026, with a comment deadline of July 15, 2026, for maintenance services on the High Pressure Air Compressor System (HPACS) aboard the USNS HENRY J. KAISER (T-AO 187), to be performed by Curtiss-Wright Fleet Solutions.
Curtiss-Wright is the original equipment manufacturer and holds an exclusive licensing agreement as the sole authorized parts and service supplier for the Machine ALT 0255 compressor unit. The Navy determined that only one responsible source is available to maintain fleet standardization under COMSCINST 4790.3 specifications for the Make and Model N20NL-11 compressor, which applies to all T-AO 187 Class vessels. The equipment serves as a direct replacement part and must remain compatible with existing shipboard systems; the Navy cited standardization requirements and exclusivity of manufacture as the basis for other-than-full-and-open competition under the simplified acquisition threshold. The procurement is not designated critical ship equipment per COMSCINST 4490.1 and SMS Procedure 10.6-002-ALL.
The justification document, filed as N104D-26-Q-0038, has been posted for public review and comment prior to award.
Notice text
The Government intends to make a sole source award to Curtiss-Wright as they are the OEM and sole source for the materials and services required on the High Pressure Air Compressor System aboard the USNS HENRY J. KAISER (T-AO 187).
