DEPT OF DEFENSE.DEPT OF THE NAVY.NAVSUP.NAVSUP WEAPON SYSTEMS SUPPORT.NAVSUP WSS PHILADELPHIA.NAVSUP WEAPON SYSTEMS SUPPORT · Response deadline: Mon, 16 Nov 2026
What the government is buying
The Navy is soliciting bids for fuel control components designated "FUEL CONTROL,MAIN,T" in connection with repair or modification work. This falls under Federal Supply Classification (FSC) 2915, which covers aircraft engine components—specifically fuel system components such as fuel controls, fuel injectors, carburetors, and related parts used in aircraft turbine engines.
NAICS 336412 designates "Aircraft Engine and Engine Parts Manufacturing." Contractors in this space typically perform work involving overhauling, repairing, remanufacturing, and modifying military aircraft engine fuel system components to meet strict naval aviation standards. The "in repair/modification" language indicates this is not a procurement of newly manufactured items from scratch, but rather sustainment work on existing components.
Given NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support Philadelphia's role as the Navy's inventory control point for aviation and maritime materiel, this contract likely supports fleet readiness for naval aircraft platforms. See the solicitation for specific technical requirements, quantities, and the applicable technical data packages.

Who can bid
This solicitation is full and open—no small business set-aside applies. Any responsible source may bid, including:
- Large and small businesses: No size standard restrictions or preference programs apply
- Small businesses that qualify under SBA size standards for NAICS 336412 ($1,500 million/1,500 employee threshold for some segments—verify current size standard at SAM.gov)
- Qualified repair stations holding FAA or military approvals for aircraft engine fuel control work
- Existing NAVSUP vendors and new entrants alike
Because this involves military aviation critical safety items, bidders should anticipate that the government will evaluate technical capability, quality systems, and past performance rigorously. Specific security clearance requirements, if any, are not stated in the notice—see the solicitation.
How to put together a competitive bid
For aircraft engine component repair/modification contracts, focus on these elements:
Technical compliance: Fuel controls for turbine engines require precision engineering. Obtain and review the technical data package referenced in the solicitation. Confirm your facility can meet dimensional tolerances, material specifications, and testing protocols. NAVSUP typically requires adherence to military specifications and may mandate specific OEM technical data rights.
Quality certification: Expect requirements for AS9110 (aerospace repair station quality) or AS9100 certification. NADCAP accreditation for specific processes (heat treat, non-destructive testing, welding) may apply depending on the work scope. See the solicitation for mandated quality standards.
Traceability and documentation: Military aviation sustainment demands complete lot traceability, material certifications, and test records. Demonstrate robust configuration management and record retention systems.
Past performance: Highlight comparable military or commercial aviation fuel control overhauls. If you lack direct Navy experience, emphasize FAA-certified repair station work for similar engine models.
Pricing structure: Repair and modification solicitations often use various contract structures—firm fixed price per item, time and materials, or cost-reimbursible elements. Analyze the estimated cost data provided, if any, and understand the government's basis for award (typically best value, considering technical merit and price). See the solicitation for pricing instructions and any provided government estimates.
Small business subcontracting: If you are a large business, prepare a subcontracting plan as required by FAR 19.702 for contracts over the applicable threshold.
