About this file
This is a Request for Quote (RFQ) from the Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division, Newport (NUWCDIVNPT) for the procurement of 12 ThinkMate VSX R5 340R7 high-performance computing systems on a sole source basis with no substitutions allowed. The RFQ number is N66604-26-Q-0236, and the NAICS code is 334111. The Government justifies the sole source award based on five years of existing ThinkMate infrastructure use, with algorithms and configurations that have been fine-tuned and automated across the system; migrating to a new manufacturer would require comprehensive review and rewrite of algorithms, resulting in significant cost and schedule impact. ThinkMate is identified as the direct source with no authorized distribution channel for the required parts.
Each system must include an AMD Ryzen 9 7900X 12-core processor, AMD X870 chipset, 128GB DDR5 RAM (4 x 32GB modules), dual 2.0TB Samsung 990 PRO M.2 NVMe solid state drives, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 16GB GPU, Intel 10-Gigabit Ethernet adapter, ThinkMate VSX High Performance Liquid Heatsink & Cooler, 850W 80 PLUS Gold modular power supply, TPM 2.0 module, and a three-year warranty with advanced parts replacement. Delivery is required by March 15, 2026 (F.O.B. Destination, Naval Station Newport, RI 02841) to an unrestricted solicitation. Quote submissions must be received by February 18, 2026 at 1400 EST via NASA SEWP and must include item prices, shipping costs, delivery terms, point of contact information, and CAGE code. Government payment will be made via Wide Area Workflow (WAWF). Active SAM registration is required prior to award. Contractors must provide unique item identifiers (UID) for items with unit acquisition cost of $5,000 or more, and quotes must be readable in Microsoft Office or Adobe Acrobat format.

v1.6_FEBRUARY2021
The Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division, Newport (NUWCDIVNPT) intends to award a firm fixed price (FFP) purchase order for the following ThinkMate items on a Sole Source basis, no substitutions allowed.
The Government currently uses and has used ThinkMate machines for the past 5 years in its infrastructure to support research. Migrating to a new manufacturer would necessitate a comprehensive and time-consuming review and potential rewrite of algorithms. Many of these configurations that have been fine-tuned have been automated across the system. Making the changes to re-configure the optimization and then create new configurations would have a significant impact to cost and schedule.
Thinkmate is the direct source for this requirement and does not have an authorized distribution channel for the required part.
This requirement is being solicited as unrestricted as concurred with by the NUWCDIVNPT Office of Small Business Programs. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 334111.
The request for Quote (RFQ) number is N66604-26-Q-0236.
The Government’s minimum specifications are as follows.
