About this opportunity

The Naval Sea Systems Command is soliciting proposals for the manufacture of Manual Bus Transfer (MBT) cables through Solicitation Number N62789-26-Q-0004, issued as a request for quotation for commercial items. The cables are specialized shore power cables required for the Naval Submarine Support Facility at Sub Base New London in Groton, Connecticut, and must meet specific military specifications and performance standards. Key contract requirements include precise manufacturing standards for multiple cable configurations with designated conductor materials, insulation specifications, voltage ratings of 600V, and certified test reports prior to delivery. The solicitation document does not explicitly detail formal evaluation criteria beyond technical compliance with the detailed specifications and delivery requirements outlined in the Statement of Work. The deadline for submission of proposals is 5:00 PM on January 5, 2026, providing potential bidders approximately one month to prepare and submit their quotations.

This procurement is designated as a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS Code 335932 (Noncurrent-Carrying Wiring Device Manufacturing) with a size standard of 1,000 employees, restricting competition to qualified small business entities. The solicitation does not identify any incumbent contractors or previous award recipients. The contract includes seven line items (CLINs) requiring the manufacture of multiple cable configurations: six 50-foot 400-amp three-phase cables, six 65-foot 133.33-amp single-phase cables in three color-coded configurations, six 30-foot cables in both 400-amp three-phase and 133.33-amp single-phase versions, and two 20-foot grounding cables, totaling approximately 44 individual cables of varying specifications. Delivery is scheduled for August 7, 2026, to SUPSHIP GROTON at Naval Submarine Base in Groton, Connecticut, with strict delivery window requirements of 0700 to 1330 EST, Monday through Friday, and base access requirements for delivery personnel.

The Government will evaluate the total offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all line items.  Evaluation of all line items will not obligate the Government to award all line items.  The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with offerors.  However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. 

The Government reserves the right to award one line, all line items or any combination thereof.  If multiple line items are awarded, costs/prices for each line item will be totaled and award amount will be based on that total.

Award will be made to the responsible offeror whose offer, conforming to the solicitation, is determined to be the best overall value; price and delivery factors considered. In determining the best overall response, the combined cost/price factors are more important than the non-cost/price factor; however, delivery date is a significant factor. The Government may select for award the offeror whose price is not necessarily the lowest, but whose technical proposal is more advantageous to the Government and warrants the additional cost. Offerors must satisfy the requirements described in the performance criteria, as well as other RFQ requirements. Offers that take exception to any performance criteria are unacceptable.
