- Description
- NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (NAVSUP WSS) intends to solicit Boeing Defense Systems (81205) for the repair and possible modification of multiple items associated with the P-8A Poseidon aircraft platform. (See Attachment A for list of items). NAVSUP WSS ™ intention is to award a Firm Fixed Price, Requirements contract. The contract will consist of one base year and two one-year option periods. Although the Navy intends to obtain competition as soon as feasible for the subject items (generally referred to as common commercial parts), see attached list, currently the P-8A is in the early stages of being deployed. The configuration of the aircraft (including some currently common commercial parts) continues to evolve as operational use is experienced. In addition to that circumstance, key logistics/support data essential to competition is not yet available. Specifically, essential provisioning data, repair data, and engineering/technical data for the subject parts (initially developed for the 737 aircraft by Boeing Commercial Aircraft or its commercial sub-vendors) have not been provided to Boeing Defense Systems, or to the Navy, although the Navy has begun purchasing data. In addition, Critical Safety Item determinations for the P-8A continue to be made and life limits assessed, including commercial common parts. And, under these circumstances, as yet there are no approved Navy Maintenance Plans for the subject commercial common parts. Given these constraints, the Navy is not yet in a position to compete repairs/modifications of the subject items and thus this one-year/two-option-year procurement will be placed with Boeing Defense Systems, the Design Control Activity for the P-8A. This procurement will be processed in accordance with Part 12 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). The applicable NAICS code is 336413. This requirement will be procured in accordance with FAR 6.302-1, only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. One or more of the items under this acquisition is subject to Free Trade Agreements. (FAR 52.225-3). One or more of the items under this acquisition is subject to the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement and Free Trade Agreements. (FAR 52.225-5). The Navy is contemplating seeking a closing date in late June/July 2015 or as soon thereafter as is practical. Sources sought. Notwithstanding the current constraints requiring procurement from Boeing Defense Systems as the Design Control Activity for the P-8A, the Navy is, and will be actively seeking in the near future, to maximize the opportunity for competition presented by these commercial common parts. As a result, sources currently approved as Federal Aviation Regulation Part 145 repair stations are encouraged to contact or remain in contact with NAVSUP WSS regarding future competition opportunities as they develop. In doing so the following should be noted. The P-8A is not FAA type certificated. It is expected these items will therefore still require Navy Source Approval prior to award. If you are not a Navy-approved source, when the Navy is in a position to accept and evaluate source approval requests in the future, you will have to submit, prior to or together with any proposal, the information detailed in the NAVSUP WSS Source Approval Brochure which can be obtained on the internet at: https://www.nasup.navy.mil/navsup/ourteam/navsupww/business_opps. Future offers received which fail to provide all data required by the Source Approval Brochure will not be considered for award. Please note, if evaluation of a source approval request submitted cannot be processed in time and/or the approval requirement precludes the ability to obtain the items being procured in time
