Valve, ball, in repair/modification of

The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command is procuring ball valves for repair and modification purposes under National Stock Number (NSN) 7H-4820-015442719-L1. The Government possesses complete technical data with no restrictions on engineering, tooling, or manufacturing, positioning this opportunity for full and open competition. Interested contractors may propose commercial items to satisfy the Government's requirement within 15 days of the pre-solicitation notice. The acquisition will be evaluated based on the contractor's capability to meet technical specifications and deliver quality products in compliance with applicable trade agreements, including the Buy American Act and World Trade Organization provisions. The solicitation closes on February 3, 2026, providing potential bidders approximately five months to prepare their proposals and submissions.

This opportunity is not designated as a set-aside and will be competed among all eligible contractors without preference programs. The Government requires delivery of two units with Free on Board (FOB) Origin terms, meaning the contractor bears responsibility for transportation to the designated location. While no specific budget or award value is disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, the relatively modest quantity and repair/modification nature of the procurement suggest a smaller contract value compared to major weapons system acquisitions. Contractors are advised that the Government is not applying commercial item acquisition policies under FAR Part 12, indicating that standard government procurement regulations and contract terms will apply to this solicitation.
