About this opportunity

The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) is seeking to procure specialized optical equipment through a sole-source Request for Quotation (RFQ) from Boston Micromachines Corporation. Specifically, the solicitation is for one Deformable Mirror (Part Number Q480826) and one Driver Assembly (Part Number 975838), which are critical components for an existing technical infrastructure. The procurement will be conducted using Simplified Acquisition Procedures with a firm fixed price and evaluated on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable basis. All offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and submit historical pricing data with their proposal. The quote is due by June 3, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. EST, with an anticipated award date of July 2, 2025, and potential offerors may submit questions via email to Lee Ann Mizelle prior to the RFQ closing.

This procurement is not set aside for small businesses and requires Trade Agreements Act (TAA) compliance. The sole-source justification stems from the existing custom-built infrastructure designed specifically around Boston Micromachines Corporation's components, which would incur significant cost and risk if another manufacturer were selected. The place of performance is located in Dahlgren, VA 22448, and the contract falls under NAICS code 333310 for Commercial and Service Industry Machinery Manufacturing. The solicitation is being issued under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13, with a total quantity of two specific components being procured. Offerors must include shipping/freight costs to the Dahlgren location and are expected to provide a signed Standard Form 1449 (SF 1449) with their quote.
