About this opportunity
The Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division, Newport (NUWCDIVNPT), under the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command, is soliciting quotations for interface support cushioning pads classified as commercial items under FAR Part 12. This Request for Quotation (RFQ) number N6660426Q0306 requires qualified vendors to be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and possess CMMC Level 2 (Self) certification or higher, along with a valid Joint Certification Program (JCP) certification and a NIST SP 800-171 DoD Assessment summary level score not more than three years old. The solicitation is being issued on an unrestricted basis, and quotations must be submitted by email no later than 2:00 p.m. EST on Monday, May 11, 2026, with the RFQ posted on April 29, 2026. No specific evaluation criteria beyond compliance with technical specifications and pricing are detailed in the notice.
This is a sole-source procurement with no small business set-aside, and Elantas North America, LLC (formerly Cytec), the original manufacturer, is the intended contractor for these cushioning pads. The procurement includes four fixed-price line items requesting a total of 189 interface support pads across two drawing specifications, with an optional fifth line item offering stepladder pricing for up to 81 additional lower pads with a not-to-exceed ceiling of $40,000. The work will be performed in Newport, Rhode Island 02841, with deliveries required on an F.O.B. Destination basis, and offerors must specify delivery lead times in their quotations. The Government may exercise the option quantity within one year of contract award at the awarded unit price, and any delivered items with unit acquisition costs of $5,000 or more must include unique item identifiers per DFARS requirements.
Notice text
This is a combined synopsis and solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with format in FAR part 12, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation and quotes are being requested. Request for Quotation (RFQ) number is N6660426Q0306.
Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division, Newport (NUWCDIVNPT) intends to purchase the following parts on a sole source basis to Elantas North America, LLC. Elantas, previously Cytec, is the original manufacturer of the required cushioning pads. The interface cushioning pads have not changed from its original design, therefore additional certifications and testing will not be required. The process of vetting another vendor to manufacture and test the cushioning pads would be a time-consuming and expensive undertaking that would exceed the critical delivery time required for the fabrication of these parts and result in an unacceptable delay in the Fleet delivery.
This requirement is being solicited as unrestricted as concurred with by NUWCDIVNPT’s Director of the Office of Small Business Programs (OSBP) . The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 325211. The Small Business Size is 1,250 employees. The Product Supply Code (PSC) is 1450.
