5840 - TILE, RUBBER, N0010424QUD89
The U.S. Navy Naval Supply Systems Command is procuring 2,144 units of Type 3R radar absorbing material (RAM) tiles, specifically half-round 4.5-inch rubber tiles (part number 7338390-2) for installation aboard Navy ships. These specialized tiles are designed to withstand harsh shipboard environments including temperature fluctuations, humidity, salt spray, and UV exposure. Contractors must possess SECRET-level security clearance and access to classified specifications, with manufacturing restricted to U.S. citizens only. The procurement requires 100% electrical testing, ISO 9001 certification, source inspection, and compliance with strict quality assurance protocols including production lot testing with 1% sample submission for compatibility evaluation. The solicitation has undergone multiple amendments, with the most recent extending the offer due date to July 24, 2025, and the quantity was previously increased from 600 to 2,144 units.
This procurement operates without any set-aside designations and is available to all qualified contractors who meet the stringent security and technical requirements. The solicitation indicates that only previously approved sources already possess the necessary classified drawings and specifications (drawing 7338390, material specification 7538395 Rev B, and PHS&T 7538398), suggesting this is likely a follow-on procurement to existing qualified manufacturers. Production will be organized in lots of 1,020 tiles (1,000 plus 20 extras), with each tile requiring sequential serial numbering and comprehensive testing documentation. The contract includes strict provisions for material failure remediation at no cost to the government, and contractors must maintain current ISO 9001 certification throughout the performance period. Manufacturing facilities must maintain operational security protocols, and any significant personnel turnover or facility changes may trigger government-mandated requalification requirements.

Solicitation 1/3 4/3/24, 4:00 AM 5840 - TILE, RUBBER, N0010424QUD89
The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command is conducting a pre-solicitation for tile, rubber products under contract opportunity N0010424QUD89. While the specific goods being procured are identified as "TILE, RUBBER" in the opportunity title, detailed requirements and specifications are contained within the attached solicitation document that is not provided in this notice. The procurement falls under NAICS code 334511 for Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing, though this classification appears inconsistent with the rubber tile products suggested by the title. The PSC category 5840 for Radar Equipment, Except Airborne also seems misaligned with the stated procurement of rubber tiles. The opportunity was posted on March 27, 2025, with a response due date of July 18, 2025, providing potential contractors with nearly four months to prepare their submissions.
This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations, making it a full and open competition available to all qualified contractors. No information is provided regarding incumbent contractors, current service providers, or potential contract values in this pre-solicitation notice. The solicitation document referenced but not included would likely contain critical details about quantities, delivery schedules, technical specifications, and budget parameters necessary for contractors to develop competitive proposals. Without access to the attached solicitation document, contractors interested in this opportunity would need to obtain the complete package to understand the scope, scale, and specific requirements of this rubber tile procurement.

Pre-Solicitation 2/3 3/27/25, 2:35 PM 5840 - TILE, RUBBER, N0010424QUD89
The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command issued this Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice for the procurement of 2,144 rubber tiles (NSN 5840-015015596, Part Number 7338390-2) for spares and repair purposes. The Navy awarded contract N00104-25-P-UC71 to MAST TECHNOLOGIES LLC on August 29, 2025, with a total estimated contract value of $1,462,208.00 at a unit price of $682.00 per tile. The sole source justification was authorized under 10 USC 3204(A)(1) because MAST TECHNOLOGIES was determined to be the only known source capable of supplying these specialized rubber tiles after comprehensive market research through government databases revealed no alternative manufacturers or distributors. The Navy concluded it would be uneconomical to acquire manufacturing data or rights from another source, particularly given that the item requires specific testing and qualification within a higher assembly. The contract includes a final delivery date of July 31, 2025, and despite synopsizing the requirement on SAM.gov on March 27, 2025, no other vendors responded to the notice.
