Gage, depth, vernier

The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command is seeking quotations for two Vernier Depth Gauges (NSN 1HM 5210-01-316-0552) through a Request for Quotations (RFQ) issued by NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support Mechanicsburg. Contractors must submit firm-fixed price quotations electronically to sherry.l.kaylor.civ@us.navy.mil by April 9, 2026, with a required 30-day delivery lead time from the Navy's Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania facility. Key contract requirements include compliance with MIL-STD-2073 packaging standards, maintenance of Item Unique Identification (IUID) requirements per DFARS 252.211-7003, demonstration of authorized distributor status or manufacturer credentials for traceability, and safeguarding of covered defense information in accordance with NIST SP 800-171. Quotations must include new procurement unit pricing, total price, procurement delivery lead time, CAGE codes, cost breakdowns with profit rates if feasible, and a minimum 90-day quote expiration date. The Navy will evaluate quotations prioritizing past performance over price, with consideration given to Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS) ratings.

This procurement carries no small business set-aside designation and is open to all qualified vendors. The solicitation specifies delivery of one unit each to two separate ship projects identified as L04 and L05, with all freight on a FOB Origin basis and acceptance and inspection occurring at the contractor's origin point. The goods will ultimately be delivered to foreign military sales (FMS) customers, and the place of performance is Mechanicsburg, Illinois 62545. While specific award values are not disclosed in the solicitation notice, the requirement for two units with firm-fixed pricing and the Navy's emphasis on past performance evaluation suggests a competitive procurement process. Interested contractors should note that the quotation deadline of April 9, 2026, provides approximately three weeks from the posting date to prepare and submit their responses.
