About this opportunity
Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division (NSWCCD), operating under the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command, intends to procure Applied Physics Systems Model 553-30G fluxgate magnetometers through a firm fixed price contract. This procurement is being conducted on a brand name basis, indicating that the government has specific technical requirements that can only be met by this particular model of magnetometer. The solicitation includes both a commercial and services solicitation document and a brand name justification document, suggesting that technical specifications and rationale for the sole-source approach are detailed in the accompanying files. The opportunity was posted on August 27, 2025, with responses due by September 4, 2025, providing potential contractors with a relatively short window of eight days to prepare and submit their proposals.
This procurement opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting competition to qualified small business entities under NAICS code 334519 (Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing) and PSC code 6655 (Geophysical Instruments). The contract will be performed in Westlake, Maryland 20817, indicating that the magnetometers will either be delivered to or utilized at this location. While the solicitation documents do not specify the exact quantity of magnetometers required or the total contract value, the brand name specification suggests that the government requires precise geophysical measurement capabilities that only the APS Model 553-30G can provide. The inclusion of a redacted brand name justification document indicates that sensitive technical or operational details regarding the specific need for this equipment may be protected from public disclosure.
