Large FWD tile

The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command is procuring Large FWD Tiles (NSN 1H-2090-017165158-ST), miscellaneous ship and marine equipment classified under PSC 2090. This procurement requires engineering source approval from the design control activity to maintain part quality, as the approved source possesses unique design capabilities, manufacturing expertise, and technical data that are not economically available elsewhere and are essential for quality assurance. Potential contractors must qualify according to procedures established by the cognizant Government engineering activity, and any alternate sources must undergo formal qualification in compliance with design control requirements. While specific evaluation criteria are not detailed in this pre-solicitation notice, the emphasis on source approval and technical qualification suggests that demonstrated engineering expertise and manufacturing capability will be primary considerations. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on January 6, 2026, with an anticipated due date of April 21, 2026, providing interested parties approximately 3.5 months to prepare and submit responses.

This procurement carries no set-aside designation, meaning all qualified contractors regardless of business classification may compete. The notice specifies a requirement for 55 units with FOB Origin delivery terms, though no award value or budget range is disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice. No incumbent contractor information is provided at this stage. Interested parties can obtain relevant Military and Federal Specifications, Standards, Qualified Products Lists, and other standardized documents through ASSIST-Online or the DoD Single Stock Point in Philadelphia; however, project-specific documentation such as patterns, drawings, and purchase descriptions must be obtained through other channels. Prospective contractors should note that additional technical documentation and qualification procedures can be obtained by contacting the DODSSP ASSIST Help Desk at the provided telephone numbers or through their website registration process.
