About this opportunity
The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL), under the Department of the Navy Office of Naval Research, has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to award a firm-fixed price purchase order on a sole source basis to Mu-Del Electronics LLC for the procurement of Block Down Converters. This Notice of Intent is not a competitive solicitation but rather a formal announcement of the government's intent to conduct a sole source acquisition utilizing Simplified Acquisition Procedures under Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 13.106-1(b). The procurement falls under NAICS code 334419 (Other Electronic Component Manufacturing) and Federal Supply Code 6150 (Miscellaneous Electric Power and Distribution Equipment). The estimated contract value does not exceed the simplified acquisition threshold of $250,000. This opportunity is designated as a Woman-Owned Small Business sole source set-aside.
Interested parties have until April 22, 2026—five calendar days from the publication date of April 17, 2026—to respond to this notice if they believe competition would be advantageous to the government. Any response must provide clear and convincing evidence demonstrating this competitive advantage, and the government will review all submissions solely to determine whether to conduct a competitive procurement rather than proceed with the sole source award. The requirement is for two Block Down Converters (model 2MDC-2640-0216/17/05/V), with pricing and detailed specifications referenced in the attached Inquiry of Availability. Only Mu-Del Electronics LLC is currently identified as capable of meeting the agency's requirements. Interested parties should direct all inquiries to Erik Wells at erik.wells2.civ@us.navy.mil and reference the Notice of Intent number in all correspondence. The government will make the final determination regarding competitive procurement at its sole discretion, and no reimbursement will be provided for capability submissions.
