Repair Common Stores Dolly, P/N 3637AS0600-3

The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division Lakehurst (NAWCAD LKE) intends to solicit, negotiate, and award to

D. Gillette Industrial Services Inc. (DGI) a Basic Ordering Agreement for the repair of repairables of the Common Stores Dolly (CSD), P/N 3637AS0600-3, NSN: 4920-01-646-8512 in support of the United States Navy F/A-18 E/F and MQ-25 Stingray aircraft. This requirement also includes the upgrade of previous configurations 3637AS0600-1 and 3637AS0600-2 to the current 3637AS0600-3 configuration. This requirement is authorized under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), as DGI is the only source with proprietary assembly apparatus essential for this effort. The proprietary assembly apparatus, such as custom-built workstations, industrial benches, and specialized jigs ensure precise alignments, accuracy, and reliability in manufacturing and assembling the CSD. No other company possesses these proprietary tools necessary for the efficient and accurate repair and upgrade of these units, making alternate sourcing impractical due to significant delays, prohibitive costs, and the need for new designs, testing, and training. Such delays would jeopardize operational readiness and mission success, making DGI the only viable source to meet the Government's

requirements. THIS NOTICE IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS. However, the Government will consider all responses received within fifteen (15) days after the date of publication of this synopsis. Active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) (https://www.sam.gov) is mandatory for consideration for award of any Department of War contract. A determination by the Government not to compete this procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The Government is not obligated to, and will not, pay for any information received from potential sources as a result of this synopsis. There is no commitment by the Government to issue a solicitation, make an award or awards, or be responsible for any money expended by interested parties before an award for the effort described above is made. Information provided herein is subject to change and in no way binds the Government to solicit for or make an award for the effort described above. Responses must be received within fifteen (15) days of publication of this notice via email, no later than
