Interested parties may submit capabilities statements by 12:00 PM on July 24, 2026, to demonstrate their capacity to fulfill this requirement. While this notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals, all responses received by the deadline will be evaluated by the Government to determine whether to proceed with a competitive procurement instead of the sole-source award. The requirement is classified under NAICS code 332991, and Electric Boat Corporation has 1,250 employees. Inquiries should be directed to Michael Bonaiuto at michael.j.bonaiuto.civ@us.navy.mil.
