About this opportunity
The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) is soliciting bids for the procurement of USV Cradles (part number 8605446-2), specialized materials handling equipment used in naval operations. The solicitation requires bidders to meet specific technical specifications including structural steel of A572 Grade 50, EPDM rubber components rated at 65A, and precise galvanization requirements for designated parts. Interested vendors must maintain active registration in the Joint Certification Program (JCP) to access required technical drawings, which are available through DoD Safe in STEP and SLDPRT file formats. The solicitation does not specify evaluation criteria beyond compliance with technical specifications and delivery requirements. The proposal due date is January 16, 2026, providing potential bidders with limited time to prepare and submit responses.
This is a total small business set-aside contract with a requirement for three total units of the USV Cradle, consisting of one first article and two production units, to be delivered to Naval Base Ventura County at Naval Construction Battalion Center Port Hueneme, California by June 1, 2026. The solicitation documents reference detailed questions and answers regarding technical specifications and manufacturing requirements, indicating that the government has already engaged with potential bidders during the presolicitation phase. No incumbent contractor or award value is identified in the available documentation. The compressed timeline from posting (December 29, 2025) to due date (January 16, 2026) reflects the urgency of this procurement and the specific delivery deadline of June 1, 2026, leaving approximately four and one-half months for manufacturing and delivery upon contract award.
