About this opportunity
The Naval Sea Systems Command, through the Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD), is seeking to procure fiber optic tools, connectors, test equipment, and related accessories to support two new Fiber Optic Test and Repair projects. This combined synopsis/solicitation (N0017826Q6615) was issued as a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for commercial items and represents the only solicitation; no separate written solicitation will be issued. The procurement requires all materials to be Trade Agreements Act (TAA) compliant and specifies that awards will be made on a Brand Name or Equal basis for products manufactured by eight identified vendors: Kitco Fiber Optic, Inc., TE Connectivity, Applied Optical Systems Inc., US Conec, APTIV, Henkel, Hubbell, and General Cable. The evaluation will be based on firm fixed pricing for the 38 line items included in the requirements list, which encompasses ST connector tool kits, shipboard kits, fiber optic tool kits, connectors, swabs, polishing films, epoxy supplies, and specialized testing equipment. The response deadline is November 19, 2025, with delivery required by December 31, 2025.
Originally issued as a 100% Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) set-aside with an October 31, 2025 closing date, the solicitation was amended on November 12, 2025 to remove the small business set-aside designation and extend the response deadline to November 19, 2025, thereby opening competition to all qualified vendors. The identified manufacturers are located across the United States, including Norfolk, Virginia; Fremont, California; Plano, Texas; Hickory, North Carolina; La Crosse, Wisconsin; Bay Point, California; Margaretville, New York; and Taunton, Massachusetts. The procurement encompasses 38 specific line items with assigned National Stock Numbers (NSNs) but does not publicly disclose an overall award value or budget range. All materials must be delivered to the NSWCDD Receiving Officer in Dahlgren, Virginia by December 31, 2025, and the contract will be administered through the Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF) payment system. The contract is classified under NAICS Code 335921 (Fiber Optic Cable Manufacturing) and PSC Code 6650 (Optical Instruments, Test Equipment, Components and Accessories), with a standard size of 1,000 employees.
