The Navy is soliciting bids for the acquisition of specific parts, including NSN 7R-5821-016969950-P8 and NSN 7684-0500-001. These parts require engineering source approval by the design control activity to maintain their quality. The approved sources retain data rights, manufacturing/repair knowledge, or technical data that are not economically available to the Government. The subject items are flight critical, and the technical data available has not been determined adequate to support acquisition via full and open competition. Only previously approved sources by the Government for these items have been solicited. Key aspects of the job include: • Acquisition of specific parts with unique design capabilities and manufacturing/repair knowledge • Requirement for engineering source approval by the design control activity • Approved sources retain data rights, manufacturing/repair knowledge, or technical data • The subject items are flight critical and require Government source approval prior to contract award • Only previously approved sources by the Government for these items have been solicited
