16--CYLINDER ASSEMBLY,A

The US Navy is soliciting quotes for the procurement of a cylinder assembly. The assembly is described as a commercial, non-developmental, and off-the-shelf item. The solicitation identifies the NSN, reference number, quantity, and delivery requirements. Interested parties must meet the qualification requirements at the time of award. The Government is not using the policies contained in FAR Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items, but interested persons may identify their interest and capability to satisfy the Government's requirement with a commercial item. Some key points to consider: • The item requires Government source approval prior to contract award. • Only the source(s) previously approved by the Government for this item have been solicited. • The time required for approval of a new source is normally such that an award cannot be delayed pending approval of a new source. • If you are not an approved source, you must submit the information detailed in one of the NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (NAVSUP WSS) Source Approval Information Brochures with your proposal.
