About this file
This is a Performance Work Statement (PWS) for the Naval Surface Warfare Center Philadelphia Division (NSWCPD), focusing on procuring Input/Output (I/O) Cables for the Landing Helicopter Dock and Landing Helicopter Assault (LHD/A) Machinery Control Systems (MCS) Land Based Test Environment (LBTE). The requirement involves manufacturing 1,075 I/O Cable assemblies with specific technical specifications, including 50-position rectangular receptacle connectors, 22 AWG wires with silver-plated copper conductors, wire ferrules, heat-shrink wire labels, and PET braided sleeves. The cables are part of a technology refresh to address obsolescence issues in the current MCS hardware configuration.
The associated Sources Sought notice indicates the Navy is conducting market research to identify potential vendors capable of fulfilling this requirement. Interested businesses are invited to submit capability statements by 5:00 PM EST on 31 March 2025, with responses limited to 5 double-spaced pages. The submission must include company details, ownership type, points of contact, technical capabilities, past performance, and ability to manage the contract. The total quantity of I/O Cables requested is 2,146, with specific manufacturing requirements for each cable assembly. The procurement is not yet a formal Request for Proposal, but a preliminary market research step to determine potential sources for the LHD/A Machinery Control Systems I/O Cables.

Specification for LHD/A Machinery Control Systems I/O Cables
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.0.1 The Naval Surface Warfare Center Philadelphia Division (NSWCPD) is a Department of Defense entity responsible for research and development, test and evaluation, engineering and fleet support organization for the Navy’s ships, submarines, military watercraft and unmanned vehicles. This requirement is for NSWCPD Code 515, which is responsible for The Landing Helicopter Dock and Landing Helicopter Assault (LHD/A) Machinery Control Systems (MCS) Land Based Test Environment (LBTE).
1.1 BACKGROUND
LHD/A MCS are currently experiencing obsolescence issues with respect to both their hardware/computer software configuration items (HWCI/CSCI) that will require a technology refresh and re-engineering to sustain shipboard tactical operations. MCS Tech Refresh has replaced the previous Versa Module Europa (VME) chassis design, with the modernized VME Peripheral Component Interconnect with extents for both buses standards (VPX) chassis design. Due to the chassis modernization and the legacy I/O Cables are no longer compatible, an alternative I/O Cable will need to be identified to support the MCS system requirements.
1.2 SCOPE OF WORK
The Contractor shall provide hardware to meet or exceed the specifications found below.
