About this opportunity
The Naval Submarine Base New London in Groton, Connecticut, through the Department of the Navy Naval Facilities Engineering Command, is seeking qualified vendors to provide crane leasing and rental services, including miscellaneous weight handling equipment for both long-term (up to one year per option period) and short-term (weekly to monthly) arrangements. The procurement is structured as a Firm Fixed Price Non-Reoccurring Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with a base period of one year plus four option periods, with an estimated start date of May 2026. Key requirements include providing 50-ton, 75-ton, and 150-ton capacity cranes that comply with OSHA standards and specific military regulations, with all equipment no more than five years old and equipped with load monitoring indicator systems and anti-two-block systems. Interested vendors must respond to this Sources Sought Notice (a Request for Information under FAR 15.201(E)) by submitting the required Sources Sought Information Form by the April 3, 2026 deadline, with a minimum of one to three references demonstrating similar work experience. Prospective offerors must be registered in SAM.gov with NAICS Code 238990 (All Other Specialty Trade Contractors) and their selected socio-economic status to be considered.
This procurement includes no small business set-aside, meaning it is open to all business sizes, though the government is specifically soliciting information from small business concerns, veteran-owned small businesses, service-disabled small businesses, HUBZone small businesses, small-disadvantaged businesses, and women-owned small businesses. No incumbent contractor information is provided in the pre-solicitation notice. The contract structure encompasses 19 line items covering equipment-only leases, operator-equipped leases at various intervals (daily, weekly, and monthly rates), overtime operations, operator overtime services, rigger services, and miscellaneous materials and labor support, with all service line items subject to the Service Contract Act. The Small Business Size Standard for this NAICS category is $19,000,000 in annual revenue, and specific award values or total budget estimates are not disclosed in this sources sought notice, as this is a preliminary information-gathering phase prior to formal solicitation.
