About this opportunity
The Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division Newport announced a sole-source procurement intent with a response deadline of August 17, 2026, for eleven MIMs Module Mating Rail Fixtures to be awarded as a firm fixed price purchase order to Cambridge Valley Machining Inc. The procurement is unrestricted and not set aside; all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation for consideration in determining whether to conduct a competitive requirement in the future.
NUWCDIVNPT requires five fixtures in the base year (October 5, 2026 through October 4, 2027) and six additional units across two option years (October 5, 2027 through October 4, 2029). The sole-source justification rests on Cambridge Valley Machining's status as the original equipment manufacturer representative for Modular Imaging Masts and technical requirements specific to the fixtures. The government determined that establishing an alternative source would incur duplicative costs and impose 15-plus week schedule delays spanning drawing interpretation, CAM programming, work holding fixture development, First Article Inspection, and functionality testing. NUWCDIVNPT plans to initiate a new production order in 2029 following completion of ongoing obsolescence redesign efforts.
The requirement falls under NAICS 332710 (Machine Shops) with a small business size standard of 500 employees. This combined synopsis and solicitation is posted for less than fifteen days in accordance with FAR 5.203(a)(2); no separate written solicitation will be issued. RFQ number is N6660426Q0457.
