About this opportunity

Naval Supply Systems Command seeks procurement of Markforged 3-D printers, accessories, and training equipment with proposals due July 22, 2026. The procurement is a HUBZone sole source restricted to authorized small business distributors, specifically Govsmart Inc., foreclosing open competition.

Place of performance spans multiple naval submarine bases: Naval Base Kitsap and Bangor (Bremerton, Washington), San Diego, Pearl Harbor, Guam, Naval Base Groton (Connecticut), Norfolk, and King's Bay (Georgia). The requirement supports Commander Submarine Forces across two commands, COMSUBPAC and COMSUBLANT.

The procurement mandates Markforged Inc. X7 Field Edition 3-D printers as the sole approved additive manufacturing system for installation aboard naval submarines per Navy Sea Systems Command directives. Markforged is the only OEM authorized for submarine installation; alternative systems require Ship Alteration approval and additional testing, and non-Markforged parts present health and safety risks. Market research identified only two small business concerns capable of providing OEM authorization letters for resale.

The 16 line items total 105 units: 45 X7 Field Edition printers (no Wi-Fi), 45 training and installation services, 45 custom Toughbook Federal computers, 45 one-year Digital Forge Essential subscriptions, 45 Digital Forge On-Prem subscriptions, 30 Onyx Spool packs, and 60 Carbon Fiber spools, plus job-based travel for on-site installation and training across all locations. Delivery is FOB Origin (government arranges transportation via NAVSUP WSS) with equipment delivery required by September 30, 2026, and training/installation completed within one year of award.

The contract is firm fixed price under FAR Part 12. Quoters must hold active SAM registration, provide Markforged authorization letters, and include CAGE codes and capabilities statements. NAICS code is 333248; PSC code is 3695. Amendment #1 (July 15, 2026) clarified Toughbook manufacturer specifications and training delivery locations.
