Description

The Naval Air Warfare Center, Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) Contracts Department, Patuxent River, MD in support of NAVAIR AB4, Propulsion and Power, intends to negotiate an order under Basic Ordering Agreement N00019-24-G-0005 on a sole source basis with Rolls-Royce Corp (RR), 450 S. Meridian St., Speed Code MC-N3-03, Indianapolis, IN 46255, in support of the V-22 platform. The order includes efforts for contractor engineering and test support to address service and production related operational and support problems, to reduce engine operating and support costs, and to address electronic parts obsolescence issues. The Government intends to procure under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), FAR 6.302-1, only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. RR is uniquely qualified to provide the complete range of program support required by the fleets. RR is also the only known firm to possess the technical data, drawings, and specifications necessary to fulfill the Government requirements. Given that RR is the original designer and prime manufacturer and their continued involvement in the past and recent engine improvements, RR has all the design intent information, original drawings, and most recent design changes, which are required to avoid undesirable interactions between existing and redesigned hardware. RR also has immediate access to tooling, special equipment and test facilities as well as sub-vendors similar tooling and facilities. These are required to verify, design, and test new proposed engineering solutions. Privately developed data, materials, and design processes are the sole property of RR.

THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS; however, responsible interested parties may submit information in which they can identify interest and capability to respond to this requirement. Responses must be received by 5:00 PM Eastern Time on 8 June 2026. The applicable NAICS code for this requirement is: 336412-Aircraft Engine and Engine Parts Manufacturing. The Government reserves the right to process the procurement on a sole source basis based upon the responses received. The Government will not pay for any information received.
