How to bid on Electronic Component Repair for the Department of the Navy
What the Navy is buying and why it matters
The Department of the Navy, specifically NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (NAVSUP WSS) Mechanicsburg, is seeking repair services for two electronic components, part number 948E332G1. These components are identified by NSN 7H-5998-013160668-GL. The repaired items are to be delivered to DLA Distribution in New Cumberland, Pennsylvania.
The Navy intends to award this contract on a sole-source basis to Ward Leonard CT LLC. This is because the government does not possess the necessary technical data to allow other companies to perform these repairs. While the Navy expects to work with a specific vendor, they are still open to considering capability statements from other interested parties.
Key dates and deadlines
This is a Request for Information (RFI) published on July 17, 2026. The formal solicitation is expected to be issued around July 31, 2026. Responses to the solicitation will be due around August 31, 2026, at 12:00 AM ET. The anticipated award date for the contract is September 15, 2026.
If you intend to submit a capability statement, it is important to do so promptly. The government will consider all proposals received within 45 days after the publication date of the synopsis.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity is primarily for firms with expertise in the repair of electronic components, specifically those familiar with part number 948E332G1. The NAICS code for this procurement is 334412, which covers Printed Circuit Assembly (PCA) Manufacturing, and the PSC is 5998, for Miscellaneous Electrical and Electronic Components. The contract duration will be one year.
Given the sole-source intent due to a lack of technical data, this opportunity is particularly suited for companies that are already approved sources for this material or the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). Firms not currently approved would need to submit a Source Approval Request (SAR), but the procurement will not be delayed for SAR approval.

Practical tips for a competitive response
Even though this is an intended sole-source award, submitting a strong capability statement is crucial. Clearly articulate your firm's experience with similar electronic component repair, especially if you have worked with the specific part number or related systems. Highlight any unique qualifications or proprietary processes that demonstrate your ability to meet the Navy's needs.
Ensure your submission directly addresses the government's stated reason for sole-sourcing: the lack of technical data. If your firm possesses the necessary data or has a proven method to reverse-engineer or repair without proprietary data, clearly explain this. Provide concrete examples of past performance that are relevant to the scope of work. Remember to adhere to all instructions for submission, including the email address and any formatting requirements.
