About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command has issued a Special Notice announcing a forthcoming federal contract opportunity for AN/SQQ-89 Surface Ship Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) Product Support. This Special Notice takes the form of a Questions and Answers document addressing vendor inquiries about the upcoming solicitation. The contracting effort relates to logistics support services for advanced nautical system instrumentation, as reflected in the NAICS category 334511 and PSC category R706. The Government anticipates releasing a formal Request for Proposal (RFP) during the third or fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2026, though no draft RFP timeline has been established at this time. This announcement is open to all bidders, with no set-asides applied to the opportunity. The Navy has determined that the contract will be awarded as a standard individual contract rather than as a multi-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) arrangement.
The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to provide transparency regarding contract structure and requirements prior to RFP issuance, allowing potential contractors to prepare proposals aligned with Government expectations. Key contractual details that will be addressed in the formal RFP include the Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) structure, contract type options (such as Level of Effort labor tables versus Firm Fixed Price arrangements), transition planning and pricing methodologies, key personnel specifications, facilities requirements, and source selection criteria. Contractors should note that the Government has recoupled the contract scope, which was previously under consideration for split performance across different activities, and this scope determination will be documented in the formal solicitation. The RFP will also address requirements related to SIPR access, HTRO utilization, and flexibility regarding transition period duration beyond standard timeframes. Eligible contractors may propose additional CLINs for consideration during the formal solicitation process, and all entities meeting standard federal contracting eligibility criteria may compete for this opportunity.
