How to bid on Prime Pump repair/modification for the DEPT of Defense
What the Navy is buying and why it matters
The Department of Defense, specifically NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (NAVSUP WSS) Philadelphia, intends to acquire six prime pumps for aircraft repair. The specific part number is 06307-02807-101, NSN 7R-1650-016671641-H5. These items are for repair requirements and are to be delivered FOB origin.
The Navy expects to award this procurement to Sikorsky on a sole-source basis. This is because the government does not possess the technical data or rights needed to purchase this part from other suppliers. While the intent is sole-source, other firms can still submit capability information for consideration.
Key dates and what happens at the deadline
This Request for Information (RFI) was published on August 19, 2026. The deadline for submitting capability statements, proposals, or quotations is September 23, 2026, at 12:00 AM ET.
Any information received within 35 days of the synopsis will be considered by the government. This information will primarily be used to determine if a competitive procurement is feasible. The government does not intend to delay this procurement to wait for Source Approval Request (SAR) approvals.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity is primarily suited for firms that can repair or modify aircraft prime pumps, specifically part number 06307-02807-101. The relevant category for this procurement is equipment, with NAICS code 336413 and FSC 1650.
Firms that are already approved to manufacture this material are in the best position. If a firm is not already approved, a Source Approval Request (SAR) may be required. This procurement is not set aside for small businesses.
How to respond to this RFI
To respond, interested organizations should submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort by email. The email address for submissions is [email protected]. No telephone requests will be honored, and no hard copies will be mailed out.
Electronic procedures will be used for this solicitation, and it will be posted to NECO. While the government intends to negotiate with only one responsible source, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation for consideration.
Practical tips for a competitive response
When preparing your response, clearly demonstrate your firm's ability to meet the repair requirements for the specific prime pump part number 06307-02807-101. Provide detailed information about your technical capabilities, experience with similar equipment, and any relevant certifications.
If your firm is not currently an approved source, include information about your readiness to submit a Source Approval Request (SAR). Although SAR approval will not delay this specific procurement, demonstrating your understanding of the process and your ability to meet those requirements can be beneficial. Focus on how your firm can satisfy the agency's requirements, even in a sole-source environment.
