The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) is seeking to procure 150 Li-ion 18V LXT Lithium-ion 6.0AH batteries through a Request for Quotation (RFQ) with solicitation number N0040625Q0291. The batteries must feature integrated LED charge level indicators, achieve full charge in 55 minutes or less, and provide up to 2x more run time per charge. NAVSUP will evaluate quotes based on technical acceptability, specifically how well vendors meet the salient characteristics, and will also consider past performance during the assessment. The contract will be a firm-fixed price supply contract with delivery to the DLA HAZMAT Warehouse in Tracy, California. Quotes are due by 12:00 AM on February 19, 2025, and the government reserves the right to make a single award to the vendor providing the best overall value.

This procurement is 100% set aside for small businesses, with a size standard of 1,250 employees under NAICS code 335910 (Battery Manufacturing). The contract is structured as a FOB destination delivery, meaning the supplier is responsible for shipping costs and risk until the goods are received at the destination. The specific quantity of 150 batteries will support SRF Yokosuka in Japan, indicating a military logistics requirement. While specific award value is not disclosed, the procurement is classified as a contract over $25,000. The product specification requires a battery capacity of 6.0AH, which suggests these are high-performance batteries intended for specialized military equipment or maintenance operations.
