The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP WSS) is seeking to procure two processors, specifically a target low processor with National Item Identification Number (NIIN) 015998936, Part Number 3144520-301, under a sole-source contract solicitation. The procurement is being conducted under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1, which allows for non-competitive acquisition under specific circumstances. While the notice is not a formal request for competitive proposals, interested vendors may submit their capabilities or proposals within 45 days of the publication date (or 30 days if awarded under an existing Basic Ordering Agreement). The government retains full discretion in determining whether to compete the procurement, and NAVSUP WSS intends to award directly to the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or non-prime source. Vendors interested in being considered must demonstrate their capability to fulfill the contract requirements by the due date of March 17, 2025.

The solicitation does not have a specific set-aside designation and is classified under NAICS category 336413 for Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing, with a Product Service Code (PSC) of 5895 for Miscellaneous Communication Equipment. The place of performance is located in Palm Bay, Florida. The quantity of processors required is precisely two units, indicating a relatively small but potentially specialized procurement. While specific award values are not disclosed in the solicitation, the contract appears to be for a targeted, specific technical component. The procurement process allows for vendors to express interest and capability, with the understanding that a lack of response will be interpreted as disinterest in the contract opportunity. The government's approach suggests a preference for working directly with the original source or manufacturer of the specified processor.
