Quick Summary
The Department of the Navy, specifically NAVSUP WEAPON SYSTEMS SUPPORT MECH, has issued a presolicitation for Ball Bearings, Annular, and similar replacement parts (NSN 3H-3110-009921009-NT). This requirement is for 38 units with delivery FOB Origin. This opportunity is for highly specialized parts requiring engineering source approval by the design control activity. Interested parties capable of providing a commercial item solution are requested to identify their interest within 15 days of the notice publication.
Scope of Work
This presolicitation seeks sources for NSN 3H-3110-009921009-NT, TDP VER 021, QTY 38 EA, which are specialized ball bearings and similar replacement parts. A critical aspect of this requirement is that the part necessitates engineering source approval by the design control activity to maintain quality. Existing qualified sources possess unique design capability, engineering skills, and manufacturing/repair knowledge, retaining data rights or technical data not economically available to the Government.
Qualification Requirements
Any alternate source must qualify in accordance with the design control activity's procedures, as approved by the cognizant Government engineering activity. The qualification procedures themselves must also be approved by the Government engineering activity with jurisdiction over the part in its intended application.
