About this file
This document is a Justification and Approval (J&A) for a non-competitive procurement by the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme Division (NSWC PHD). The agency plans to award a single firm-fixed-price contract to Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) for six HPE DL380 servers, including installation and maintenance services, to support a virtual twin environment for United States Navy Test and Evaluation events. The procurement is funded by FY25 Naval Innovative Science and Engineering funds and FY25 Capital Improvement Projects funds.
The justification for sole-source procurement is based on the need to replace end-of-life servers that are no longer supported by the manufacturer. HPE is the only brand approved for the current Authority to Operate (ATO) list, and using any other brand would require ATO recertification, causing significant delays. A Sources Sought Notice was posted from 19 May 2025 through 29 May 2025, receiving responses from two vendors capable of delivering the required HPE brand supplies. NSWC PHD will continue to conduct market research to provide a broader vendor base for future requirements.
