About this opportunity
Naval Sea Systems Command is conducting market research for first article testing of eight rubber formulations for Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, with capability statements due July 10, 2026. No set-aside is anticipated.
The contractor's laboratory must hold ISO 17025 accreditation with scope covering all test methods required. Testing encompasses eight distinct rubber formulas (P-1, P-3, 10-D-35, 80-C-36, 10-D-36, P-31, 15-D-15, and 15-D-12) performed per military performance specifications MIL-PRF-15624H, MIL-PRF-19769C, MIL-PRF-32287A, and ZZ-R-768, supplemented by ASTM standards. The first three formulas require Class 3 testing under MIL-PRF-15624H including tensile strength, elongation, hardness, specific gravity, compression set, and liquid immersion properties. Formula 4 requires Class 1 testing with water immersion and extraction procedures. Formulas 5 and 6 require MIL-PRF-19769C testing with oil immersion and swell measurements. Formulas 7 and 8 require specialized testing including hydraulic fluid aging, dynamic cycling, and mechanical property measurements using Yerzley oscillograph equipment. Work is performed at the contractor's ISO 17025-accredited laboratory. The contract includes options for up to two additional complete test cycles per formula if formulations require modification. Deliverables include detailed laboratory reports documenting all test results, sample remarks, and quality control issues. Portsmouth Naval Shipyard and the contractor coordinate on sampling requirements. Marilyn Fletcher, contract specialist, receives capability statements.
