Quick Summary
The Department of the Navy, specifically NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support, intends to issue a sole-source presolicitation for the procurement of Flexible Hoses (P/N# C186.1533.00). This requirement is for 55 units of NSN 6X-4720-LWM044263. The intended sole source is Cometto SPA (A5383) due to unique design capabilities and data rights. Responses from other interested sources are due by July 6, 2026.
Scope of Work
This presolicitation is for the replenishment of 55 each Flexible Hose, P/N# C186.1533.00, with NSN 6X-4720-LWM044263, TDP VER 003. Delivery is FOB Origin. The acquisition is justified as sole-source (AMSC C) because the part requires engineering source approval by the design control activity to maintain quality. The approved source(s) possess unique design capability, engineering skills, and manufacturing knowledge, and retain data rights or technical data not economically available to the Government, which are essential for part quality.
Qualification for Alternate Sources
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 must also be approved by the Government engineering activity with jurisdiction over the part in its intended application. The notice specifies conditions under which AMCs 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 would be valid based on the number of approved sources or data adequacy.
