About this opportunity

The Naval Air Systems Command is procuring five Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) Modular Shallow Water Egress Trainers (MSWET) for Aviation Survival Training Centers located in Pensacola, Florida and Miramar, California. These specialized training devices simulate underwater aircraft emergency egress scenarios and must feature reconfigurable seats, five-point restraint systems, and the ability to replicate various aircraft configurations. The trainers must be constructed of 304L stainless steel to withstand pool water exposure, weigh less than 450 pounds, and have a roll rate of no more than 6 seconds. The procurement falls under NAICS code 333310 for Commercial and Service Industry Machinery Manufacturing, and all contractor personnel must possess a favorably adjudicated Tier-3 security investigation. Interested vendors must submit detailed five-page capability responses by 1500 EST on August 27, 2025, to Julie Alonso, and the Request for Proposal is anticipated for release in September 2025 with contract award expected in March 2026.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside with a size standard of 1,000 employees under NAICS 333310, though one document references a $34.0 million size standard. The government is conducting this sources sought notice to determine whether to proceed with full and open competition or maintain the small business set-aside designation. The contract structure will be Firm Fixed Price (FFP), and respondents must provide comprehensive company information including socio-economic status, capability statements, and potential subcontracting plans. The procurement specifically targets five identical training units to be delivered to two separate military training facilities. The government will use the responses to shape its acquisition strategy and determine the appropriate level of competition for this specialized training equipment requirement.
