About this opportunity
The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) through Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Crane is soliciting 3M Company Connectors under solicitation number N00164-26-Q-0009, a sole-source acquisition processed under simplified acquisition procedures. The procurement includes two specific connector models: 640 units of MP2-H150-51S3-S-KR connectors and 768 units of MP2-SS150-51S1-KR connectors, both manufactured by 3M Company. This sole-source procurement is justified on a brand-name basis, as these specific connectors have been integrated into an ongoing Naval program for over a decade and changing suppliers would require significant system redesign, causing production and shipment delays. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement for government consideration; however, the government reserves discretion to proceed with the sole-source award to 3M Company or to conduct a competitive procurement. The solicitation closes on November 17, 2025, at 3:00 PM Eastern Time, and all vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) to submit proposals.
This procurement contains no small business set-asides and is exclusively for 3M Company and its authorized distributors. The incumbent contractor is 3M Company, headquartered in Maplewood, Minnesota, with a CAGE code of 76381. The total contract value has been redacted in the available documentation. Delivery is required 75 calendar days after contract award, with accelerated or partial delivery accepted by the government at no additional cost under a firm fixed-price arrangement. The supplies are to be delivered to NSWC Crane in Crane, Indiana, specifically to Building 41 Receiving. A last-time-buy deadline of December 15, 2025, has been established for these connectors, underscoring the urgency and criticality of this procurement to ongoing Naval operations.
