NSN 7R-1560-013123111-GF, REF NR 74A735001-1017, QTY 2 EA, DELIVERY FOBORIGIN. The Government physically does not have in its possession
sufficient,accurate, or legible data to purchase this part from other than the
current source(s). The subject item requires Government source approval prior to
contract award, as the item is flight critical and/or the technical data
available has not been determined adequate to support acquisition via full and
open competition. Only the source(s) previously approved by the government for
this item have been 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 "https://www.neco.navy.mil/sar.cfm" Naval
Inventory Control Point Philadelphia Source Approval Information Brochure. This
brochure identifies technical data required to be submitted based on your
company's experience in production of the same or similar item, or if this is an
item you have never made. If your request for source approval is currently being
evaluated at NAVICP-P, submit with your offer a copy of the cover letter which
forwarded your request for source approval. Offers received which fail to
provide all data required by the Source Approval Brochure or document previous
submission of all data required by the Source Approval Brochure will not be
considered for award under this solicitation. Please note, if evaluation of a
source approval request submitted hereunder cannot be processed in time and/or
approval requirements preclude the ability to obtain subject items in time to
meet government requirements, award of the subject requirement may continue
based on Fleet support needs. The NAVICP Commercial Item Identification Brochure
is now available at: "https://www.neco.navy.mil/sar.cfm". This requirement
therefore will be restricted to Northrop Grumman (76823), El Segundo, Ca.
