How to bid on Motor, Alternating C, Repair/Modification for DEPT of the Navy
What the agency is buying
The Department of the Navy needs one alternating-current motor (NSN 6105-01-243-2116) repaired or modified. The delivery term is FOB origin. This is an opportunity for businesses specializing in motor repair or modification services.
The government anticipates negotiating with a single source for this requirement. This is because the government does not possess the necessary technical data, and it has determined that competition or reverse engineering would not be economical.
Key dates and deadlines
This request for information (RFI) was published on July 21, 2026. The deadline for responses is August 31, 2026, at 12:00 AM ET. Responses received within 45 days of the publication date may be considered by the government.
While the government intends to negotiate with one source, interested firms can still submit capability information or a quote. The government will consider these submissions to determine if a competitive procurement is feasible.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity is suitable for firms with expertise in the repair or modification of alternating-current motors, particularly those familiar with NSN 6105-01-243-2116. Businesses that can provide these specialized services and have a CAGE code are encouraged to respond.
The solicitation falls under the 'supplies' category, but the work involves a service (repair/modification) for a specific item. Vendors with proprietary technical data or unique capabilities for this specific motor may find this particularly relevant.

Tips for a competitive response
Even though this is an RFI with an intent to negotiate with a single source, a well-prepared response can still make a difference. Clearly demonstrate your firm's unique capabilities and experience with similar motor repair or modification projects.
If you possess the technical data or proprietary knowledge for NSN 6105-01-243-2116, highlight this in your submission. Provide specific examples of past performance that show your ability to meet the government's requirements for this type of specialized work. Ensure all required information, including your CAGE code, is accurately provided.
