How to bid on P-8 warming oven repair for the Navy
What the Navy is buying
NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support Philadelphia is seeking repair of one electric warming oven for a P-8 aircraft for the United Kingdom. The work includes the labor, materials, and parts needed to restore the government-owned item to operational condition.
The Navy intends to solicit only Aviation Communication & Surveillance Systems because it says it does not possess, or cannot provide, the data needed to perform the repair or manufacture the item. This notice is not a request for competitive proposals, but other responsible sources may express interest.
Dates and the response window
The notice was published October 27, 2026. The listed solicitation deadline is November 30, 2026, at 4:00 PM ET.
The notice says proposals received within five days after publication will be considered. The Navy may decide not to compete the proposed contract, and it says award will not be delayed while a new source’s approval is pending. Treat the five-day response window as especially important if you want the Navy to consider your interest.
Who this opportunity may suit
This opportunity may suit a firm capable of repairing electric warming ovens for P-8 aircraft and providing the labor, materials, and parts needed to return the unit to working condition. It is listed in the food_agriculture category, but the described work is aircraft equipment repair.
A firm that is not already an approved source should consider whether it can provide the information required for a Navy Source Approval Request. Approval is required, and the Navy says it will not wait for approval before making an award.

Prepare a focused response
If responding, clearly identify your interest and provide a capability statement that explains your relevant repair experience and ability to furnish the labor, materials, and parts for this item. Keep the response tied to the specific oven repair rather than relying on a general company overview.
If you are not an approved source, include the information required by the NAVSUP-WSS Source Approval Information Brochure for Repair with your proposal. Check the solicitation documents for submission instructions, and plan around the notice’s five-day consideration window rather than assuming source approval will extend the schedule.
