15--TANK,FUEL,AIRCRAFT - AND SIMILAR REPLACEMENT PARTS, IN REPAIR/MODIFICATION OF N0038325RH251
Summary
AI-generated · Aug 24, 2025An overhaul is required for a specific aircraft fuel-tank replacement part (NSN 7R-1560-014554868-QE), quantity 10 each, with delivery on a FOB origin basis. This work is strictly sole-sourced to Meggitt (Rockmart) Inc because they possess the tooling, jigs, and engineering capability needed for an extensive overhaul. The Navy lacks sufficient rights to data, supporting test equipment, and/or related specifications to support full and open competition, and these items are designated Critical Safety Items with a limited pool of qualified sources. The approved source must maintain data rights and overhaul knowledge; any alternate source must qualify under the design-control activity procedures approved by the government.
Before award, government source approval is required. Alternate sources must qualify per the design-control activity’s procedures, as approved by the cognizant government engineering activity, and the necessary technical data must be submitted (per NAVSUP WSS source-approval brochures) based on your company’s production experience. If your source-approval request is already under evaluation, include the cover letter with your proposal. If timely approval cannot be obtained, award may proceed to meet Fleet support needs. This is a sole-source action under FAR 6.302-1; interested parties may identify capability within 15 days, but proposals will be considered under the government’s sole-source plan, with award contingent on meeting qualification requirements at time of award.
NSN 7R-1560-014554868-QE, TDP VER 005, QTY 10 EA, DELIVERY FOB ORIGIN. This is strictly an overhaul requirement that will be solicited sole source to Meggitt (Rockmart) Inc (56221). Meggitt is the only source that has the tooling and jigs needed to perform this extensive overhaul of the subject items. The Navy does not currently have in its possession sufficient rights to data, supporting test equipment, and/or associated specifications required for full and open competition. Furthermore, while general repair work would be competed on a limited basis due to criticality, this is strictly overhaul work that is sole source to Meggitt. NAVSUP-WSS must procure the items from Meggitt. The latest configuration of NIINs 014554868 and 015317578 have been checked and all records have been properly aligned, identified, and documented. These items have been deemed Critical Safety Items, thus limiting qualified sources. Per JDRS Meggitt (Rockmart) Inc (56221) is the only approved source that can overhaul these items at this time. The data necessary to solicit the overhaul of these items from sources other than Meggitt (Rockmart) Inc (56221) is not physically available and is uneconomical to obtain. These parts require engineering source approval by the design control activity in order to maintain the quality of the parts. Existing unique design capability, engineering skills, and overhaul knowledge by the qualified source(s) require acquisition/repair of the parts from the approved source(s). The approved source(s) retain data rights, overhaul knowledge, or technical data that are not economically available to the Government, and the data or knowledge is essential to maintaining the quality of the parts. An alternate source must qualify in accordance with the design control activity's procedures, as approved by the cognizant Government engineering activity. The qualification procedures must be approved by the Government engineering activity having jurisdiction over the parts in the intended application. The subject items require Government source approval prior to contract award, as the items are 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 these items 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, together with your proposal, the information detailed in one of the NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (NAVSUP WSS)Source Approval Information Brochures listed below. Spares: https://www.navsup.navy.mil/NAVSUP-Enterprise/NAVSUP-Weapon-Systems-Sup port/Business-Opps/ Repair: https://www.navsup.navy.mil/NAVSUP-Enterprise/NAVSUP -Weapon-Systems-Support/Business-Opps/ Technical data required to be submitted based on your company's experience in production of the same or similar items, or if these are items you have never made. If your request for source approval is currently being evaluated at NAVSUP WSS submit with your offer a copy of the cover letter which forwarded your request for source approval. Offers received which fail to provide all data required by the Source Approval Brochure or document previous submission of all data required by the Source Approval Brochure will not be considered for award under this solicitation. Please note, if evaluation of a source approval request submitted hereunder cannot be processed in time and/or approval requirements preclude the ability to obtain subject items in time to meet Government requirements, award of the subject requirement may continue based on Fleet support needs. The NAVSUP WSS Commercial Item Identification Brochure is now available at: "https://www.navsup.navy.mil/NAVSUP-Enterprise/NAVSUP-Weapon-Systems-Support/Bus iness-Opps/" 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 DoDSingle Stock Point (DODSSP) at Document Automation and Production Service(DAPS) in Philadelphia, PA.

The Contractor must obtain final inspection and acceptance by the Governmentfor all assets within the RTATs established in the subsequent contract. Required RTAT: 112 days after receipt of asset. Throughput Constraint: Contractor must provide a throughput Constraint for each NSN(s). Total assetsto be repaired monthly after initial delivery commences X/month (contractorfill in #). A throughput of 000 per month reflects no throughput constraint. Induction Expiration Date: 365 days after contract award date. Any asset received after this date in daysis not authorized for repair without bi-lateral agreement between theContractor and NAVSUP WSS Contracting Officer. Price Reductions: Any assets for which the contractor does not meet the required RTAT will incura price reduction of TBD per unit.
