IPHONE ACQUISTION for FDRMC and NAVEUR Headquarters Naples Italy

The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command is seeking to procure Apple iPhone 17 devices with 256GB storage, protective cases, and USB-C power adapters for two naval installations in Naples, Italy: the Forward Deployed Regional Maintenance Center (FDRMC) and Naval Forces Europe/Africa, Sixth Fleet (NAVEUR/NAVAF/SIXTHFLT) Headquarters. The primary contract requirement is that the contractor must be an Apple Authorized Reseller capable of enrolling all devices into government Apple Business Manager (ABM) instances prior to delivery, with all equipment sourced new and factory-sealed from authorized supply chains. The contractor must also ensure proper packaging to prevent shipping damage and deliver all items within 30 days of contract award on an FOB Destination basis to the specified locations in Naples. While the notice does not explicitly state evaluation criteria, the ability to meet Apple Authorized Reseller status, ABM enrollment capability, and delivery timeline requirements will be critical factors. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on March 25, 2026, with a closing date of April 7, 2026, allowing potential contractors approximately two weeks to prepare for the upcoming formal solicitation.

This procurement contains no set-aside designations and does not identify any incumbent contractors. The bill of materials consists of four contract line items totaling 400 iPhone 17 devices: 150 units with protective cases and power adapters for FDRMC enrollment, and 250 units for NAVEUR enrollment, with each location receiving devices enrolled in separate ABM accounts. The notice does not specify a budget range or estimated contract value, though the procurement of 400 smartphones with associated accessories and ABM enrollment services suggests a substantial acquisition. The delivery timeline requires all items to be delivered FOB Destination within 30 days following contract award, necessitating rapid mobilization and coordination with Apple's authorization channels to complete the required ABM enrollment prior to shipment to the two Naples locations.
