NAVSUP Weapon System Support plans to award a five-year Requirements Long Term Contract (LTC) for H-53 components listed below to PATTEN CO., INC. (Cage Code 6M638 ) in Stratford, Connecticut in December 2022. Under the proposed contract, the contractor will stock, warehouse, repair, modify, overhaul, strip and rebuild, remanufacture and/or replace, store and provide for shipment Ready-for-Issue (RFI) condition assets within negotiated supply RTAT.

The maximum period of performance for this effort will not exceed 5 years. Justification for Sole Source Acquisition: the statutory authority applicable to permit other than full and open competition is 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii) and (iii) with only responsible source and no other supplies and services will satisfy agency requirements. Sikorsky, Cage Code 6M638, is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for the components to be covered under this LTC contract. Sikorsky is the only source with the engineering expertise and technical data necessary to perform essential PBL tasks such as repair, resolution of obsolescence issues, sustainment of reliability, and management of configuration of the Navy’s Critical Safety Item/Critical Application Item WRAs/SRAs covered by the contemplated procurement. Further, only Sikorsky owns the necessary design, configuration, manufacturing, production, and process data required to implement the necessary reliability sustainment/improvements. In addition, only Sikorsky has access to the original design data/OEM intellectual property. One or more of the items under this acquisition is subject to the Free Trade Agreements Act and/or the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement and Free Trade Agreements.

Even though the requirement has been designated sole source, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. For any questions concerning this notice, contact the PCO, Shamus Roache, at Shamus.Roache@navy.mil

The subject items require Government source approval prior to contract award, as the items are Aviation Critical Safety Items (CSI)/Critical Application Items (CAI)/Flight Safety Critical Aircraft Parts and/or the technical data available has not been determined adequate to support repair via full and open competition. Only the source previously approved by the Government for repair of these items will be 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 the NAVSUP WSS Source Approval Information Brochure for Repair. This brochure identifies technical data required to be submitted based on your companys experience in repair of the same or similar items. This brochure can be obtained at:
