What the agency is buying and why it matters
The Department of Defense, specifically NAVSUP Weapons System Support (NAVSUP WSS) Philadelphia, is looking for a five-year repair contract. This contract supports a V-22 requirement for National Stock Number (NSN) 4210-01-444-4825. While the agency intends to award this as a sole-source contract to the original manufacturer, Ametek Ameron, other capable firms are invited to submit their qualifications.
Key dates and deadlines
This Request for Information (RFI) was published on September 10, 2026. If you wish to identify your interest and capability to satisfy the government's requirement with a commercial item, you must do so within 15 days of this notice. All proposals received within 45 days after the publication date will be considered by the government. The official deadline for submissions is September 25, 2026, at 2:20 PM ET.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity primarily suits firms that are the Original Manufacturer (OEM) or already approved sources for manufacturing the material related to NSN 4210-01-444-4825. Since no technical data is available and the government does not own the data rights, the procurement is being treated as sole source. However, other capable firms with relevant security category experience may submit capability statements, especially if they can provide a commercial item solution. This procurement is not a Total Small Business Set-Aside.

Tips for preparing a competitive response
Even for a sole-source RFI, a strong capability statement is crucial. Clearly articulate your firm's experience with similar V-22 repair support or related security category work. If you are not the OEM, focus on demonstrating your unique ability to meet the requirement, especially if you can offer a commercial item solution. Highlight any existing approvals or certifications that are relevant to the NSN. Ensure your submission is concise, professional, and directly addresses the agency's stated need, even if it's to challenge the sole-source assumption.
