16--BOOSTER ASSEMBLY,AI, IN REPAIR/MODIFICATION OF

The Navy is soliciting proposals for the repair or modification of a booster assembly. The item is a commercial, non-developmental, off-the-shelf item, and the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source. The proposed contract action is for supplies or services, and all responsible sources may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. • The item requires Government source approval prior to contract award, as it is flight critical and/or the technical data available has not been determined adequate to support acquisition via full and open competition. • 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 a company is not an approved source, they must submit, together with their proposal, the information detailed in one of the NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (NAVSUP WSS) Source Approval Information Brochures.
