- Description
- The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) intends to issue a contract action to the Boeing Company (Boeing), 7755 E Marginal Way S., Seattle, WA 98108-4002, on an other than full and open basis for the procurement of Universal Aerial Refueling Receptacle Slipway Installation (UARRSI) Seal Dam & Clam Shell retrofit kits for P-8A Poseidon aircraft. Contract action award is planned to occur in 3rd Quarter FY27. The planned period of performance is 60 months. The effort shall be procured pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, ""Only One Responsible Source and No Other Type of Supplies or Services will Satisfy Agency Requirements."" The Boeing P-8A consists of a basic Boeing commercial 737-800 ERX air vehicle modified to meet Navy requirements, and numerous systems and subsystems for avionics, communications, mission, and weapon capabilities. Boeing is the sole designer, developer, and manufacturer of the P-8A airframe, as well as the sole integrator of the P-8A�s systems and subsystems for avionics, communications, mission, and weapon capabilities, and therefore is the only responsible source with the requisite knowledge, experience, and technical data to develop and implement P-8A retrofit kits. As the P-8A Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), Boeing is the only source that has the knowledge and access to the technical data necessary to develop each kit. Without concluding, that an alternate source could fulfill the requirements, the timeline to compete and qualify that alternate source is expected to significantly delay ongoing P-8A system design and development efforts. Therefore, pursuing alternate sources to fulfill the contemplated requirements would result in an unacceptable delay in fulfilling those requirements for U.S. Navy Fleet and international country end users. The 6 May 2026 Sources Sought Notice provided the opportunity for interested persons by 21 May 2026 to submit a Capability Statement identifying their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. The Government has completed its review of all written information submitted on or before 21 May 2026 in response to the Sources Sought Notice. The Government will not consider any information submitted by interested parties in response to this Presolicitation Notice. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. Companies interested in subcontracting opportunities should contact Boeing directly via Ms. Paige Bisset at (425) 965-8077 and paige.v.bisset@boeing.com.
