16--MODIFICATION KIT,AI

The United States Navy is soliciting bids for the acquisition and repair of a modification kit, AI, with a quantity of 160 units. The item requires government source approval prior to contract award, and only approved sources have been solicited. Interested parties must submit their proposals within 45 days, and the government will consider all proposals received during this time. The contract action is for supplies or services, and the government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. Some key points to consider: • The item is flight critical and/or the technical data available has not been determined adequate to support acquisition via full and open competition. • The production/repair of this item involves unclassified but militarily sensitive technology. • The government is not using the policies contained in FAR Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items, in its solicitation for the described supplies or services. • Interested parties may obtain copies of Military and Federal Specifications and Standards, Qualified Products Lists (QPLs), Qualified Product Databases (QPDs), Military Handbooks, and other standardized documents from the DoD Single Stock Point (DODSSP).
