About this opportunity
The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD), part of the Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command, has issued a Sources Sought/Request for Information (RFI) to identify potential suppliers for twelve Ground Hand Trailers with Part Number 315009-2-001-1 (NSN 4920-01-690-2507). These specialized trailers are essential support equipment used for the safe and secure transport of aircraft radomes during scheduled and unscheduled maintenance operations, enabling access to Satellite Communication, Level of Service, Global Positioning System, and Ultra High Frequency antennas. Interested vendors must submit written responses not exceeding ten pages via email, including product specifications, proof of certifications, and separate price data marked as "PRICE DATA." The government seeks industry input to identify components that meet the specified requirements and requests vendors provide price lists for items they believe satisfy the need. All responses must be submitted by July 8, 2025, at 9:00 AM EST to the designated contracting point of contact, Michael Miller.
This procurement opportunity does not utilize any set-aside designations and is open to all qualified vendors. The requirement specifically calls for twelve units of the specialized ground hand trailers, indicating a relatively modest quantity for this specialized defense equipment. No incumbent contractors or current suppliers are identified in the notice, suggesting this may be a new requirement or the government is seeking to expand its supplier base. The RFI explicitly states that the government will not be responsible for any costs incurred by respondents and emphasizes that this is an information-gathering exercise only, with no immediate contract award anticipated. The government has not disclosed any budget ranges or estimated award values, maintaining that providing price data does not create any contractual obligations for either party.
