How to bid on Monitor Repair/Modification for the DEPT of the Navy

What the Navy is buying and why it matters

The Department of the Navy needs six units of a specific monitor part (NSN 7R-5998-016862762-TX) for repair or modification. This is a critical item, and the agency requires engineering source approval to maintain quality.

This opportunity is significant for businesses that specialize in the repair or modification of specialized technology components, especially those with existing qualifications or the capability to become an approved source for critical flight items.

Key dates and what happens at the deadline

This Request for Information (RFI) was published on July 15, 2026. The deadline for submissions is August 31, 2026, at 12:00 AM ET.

At the deadline, all proposals and any required source approval information must be submitted. Offers that do not include all necessary data for source approval, or documentation of previous submission, will not be considered for award.

Who this opportunity suits

This opportunity is best suited for firms with existing Government source approval for this specific monitor part. It also suits companies with unique design capability, engineering skills, and manufacturing or repair knowledge relevant to flight-critical items.

If your company is not an approved source, this bid is for you if you have the technical data, experience, and resources to undergo a rigorous qualification process with the design control activity and the cognizant Government engineering activity.

If your source approval request is already being evaluated, include a copy of your cover letter.

Tips for a competitive response

Carefully review the NAVSUP WSS Source Approval Information Brochures to understand all required documentation for new source qualification. Ensure every piece of information is complete and accurate, as incomplete submissions will not be considered.

Highlight your company's unique design capabilities, engineering skills, and manufacturing or repair knowledge that are essential to maintaining the quality of this flight-critical part. Emphasize any existing data rights or technical data you possess that are not economically available to the Government.

Understand that the source approval process can take time. While the Navy may proceed with award based on fleet support needs if a new source cannot be approved in time, a thorough and well-prepared qualification submission is crucial for future opportunities and to demonstrate your capability.
