About this opportunity
The Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) is procuring encryption and data security equipment through solicitation N0017825Q6849, specifically TACLANE-Flex encryption devices, power adapters, cable packs, and ProtecD@R Multi-Platform encryption units from General Dynamics One Source LLC. The procurement has evolved from an initial sole source approach to a "Brand Name or Equal" solicitation, though vendors must provide a General Dynamics reseller Letter of Authorization with their quotes to avoid exclusion. All materials must be TAA compliant, and offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) with submission of historical pricing data required. The contract will be awarded on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable basis using Simplified Acquisition Procedures under FAR Part 13. The original quote deadline of August 13, 2025 at 5:00 PM EST has been extended to August 18, 2025 at 9:00 AM EST, with an anticipated award date of September 12, 2025.
While the initial solicitation indicated no set-aside designation, an amended version shows the procurement is set aside for Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) enterprises. General Dynamics One Source LLC, located in Falls Church, Virginia, is identified as the manufacturer of the required products, with the Navy noting that introducing alternative manufacturers would cause at least 12-month delays due to NSA certification requirements. The procurement includes specific quantities: 4 TACLANE-Flex trade-in units, 4 standard power adapters, 2 one-meter cable packs, and 2 ProtecD@R Multi-Platform encryption devices, with delivery required by December 8, 2025. Performance will take place at NSWC Dahlgren in Virginia, with shipping costs to Dahlgren, VA 22448-5110 required to be included in quotes. The contract operates under a firm fixed-price structure across five line items, with the Navy justifying the brand name approach based on existing installed software and the exclusive nature of General Dynamics' encryption solutions.
