About this opportunity

The Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division Newport (NUWCDIVNPT) is seeking to procure 15 DIGI 16 Port Serial to Ethernet Servers, which are critical end-of-life hardware components for an existing Navy system. The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command is issuing this solicitation as a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) procurement to address an urgent mission need until a new server design can be validated and integrated, which is estimated to take two years. The contract will be awarded on a lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) basis, with strict requirements that vendors provide new hardware/software, avoid gray market items, and not drop ship from outside the United States. Vendors must submit offers by February 18th, 2024, at 6:00 PM EST directly to Hannah Murphy via email, with quotes remaining valid for at least 20 days. Key submission requirements include providing pricing, shipping costs, delivery terms, point of contact details, and CAGE code.

The solicitation is a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS category 541519 (Other Computer Related Services) with a size standard of 150 employees. The procurement will be for servers with the specific part number 70002534, which are currently the only servers approved for use in the existing Navy system. Delivery will be FOB destination at NUWCDIVNPT in Newport, RI, with payment processed through the Procurement Integrated Enterprise Environment (PIEE). Vendors must provide unique item identifiers for items costing $5,000 or more and maintain active SAM registration. The servers are critically needed to sustain mission requirements, as the current hardware is no longer manufactured and a replacement design is still undergoing extensive form/fit/function evaluation and shock testing. While no specific award value is mentioned, the procurement represents a strategic acquisition to maintain operational capabilities during a transitional period.
