Quick Summary
The Department of the Navy, through NAVSUP WEAPON SYSTEMS SUPPORT MECH, has issued a Presolicitation / Notice of Intent to acquire Fuses (NSN 1H-5920-016277253-X3). This is a Total Small Business Set-Aside and the Government intends to negotiate with only one source due to specific engineering source approval requirements. Interested parties may identify their interest and capability or submit quotes for consideration.
Scope of Work
This requirement is for 60 Fuses (NSN 1H-5920-016277253-X3, TDP VER 006). Deliveries are destined for DLA Distribution centers in New Cumberland, PA, and Tracy, CA. The items are to be issued to Adirondack Electronics Inc, Round Lake, NY. The acquisition is driven by a need for parts requiring engineering source approval by the design control activity to maintain quality. Existing unique design capability, engineering skills, and manufacturing/repair knowledge held by qualified source(s) necessitate acquisition from approved sources. These approved sources retain data rights, manufacturing/repair knowledge, or technical data not economically available to the Government, which is essential for maintaining part quality. Alternate sources must qualify according to the design control activity's procedures, approved by the cognizant Government engineering activity.
