About this opportunity

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division (NSWCCD) is seeking to procure 20 Teledyne P/N 1041001-121 electrical connectors for a submarine explosive bolt system, with a specific focus on specialized cable assemblies critical to submarine applications. The procurement is being conducted as a sole-source solicitation under FAR Part 13.106-1(b), with Teledyne Industries, Inc. identified as the intended supplier. Interested parties are invited to submit capabilities statements by 5:00 PM EST on May 12, 2025, though this is not a competitive quote request. Evaluation will be based on the ability to meet precise technical specifications for these custom, non-standard electrical connectors designed for submarine use. Respondents must provide comprehensive information including pricing, FOB point, contact details, GSA contract number, business size, and payment terms.

The solicitation does not have a specific small business set-aside, with the NAICS code 334417 having a small business standard of 1,000 employees. Teledyne D.G. O'Brien is identified as the sole manufacturer capable of producing these critical components, with zero ready-for-issue items currently in the supply chain. The procurement is structured with a firm fixed pricing arrangement and a delivery requested date of October 31, 2025. The place of performance is the Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division in Keyport, Washington (98345). This acquisition is part of a broader strategic effort to maintain submarine asset readiness, addressing critical supply chain constraints and ensuring the availability of specialized electrical connectors for submarine systems.
