About this opportunity
The Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division Newport (NUWCDIVNPT) under the Department of the Navy is procuring various mooring components through an Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with Firm Fixed Price provisions. The procurement includes specialized deep-sea mooring equipment such as jacketed wire rope in multiple lengths (5m to 387m), wooden storage reels, galvanized pear links, stainless steel cotter pins, anchor assemblies, galvanized swivels, shackles, mooring chain, release kits, and syntactic floats. These components will support the design and construction of deep-sea moorings to investigate biofouling at depth and test antifouling coatings. The government intends to make this award on a sole source basis to Mooring Systems, Inc. (MSI), as they possess proprietary data rights to the mooring design and specialized experience with deep-sea moorings. The original solicitation deadline was December 12, 2024, at 2:00 PM, though this appears to be intended as a sole source notification rather than a competitive solicitation.
This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside under NAICS code 332510 (Hardware Manufacturing) with a size standard of 750 employees. Mooring Systems, Inc. has been identified as the intended sole source contractor, having previously served as a subcontractor to McLaughlin Research Corporation and maintaining the necessary proprietary design rights. The contract has an anticipated ceiling value of $210,000 with a performance period of three years from the date of award. Initial delivery requirements include replacement and updated moorings and parts by February 3, 2025, with costs estimated at $175,000 over the first three months ($75,000 for newly designed moorings and $100,000 for additional moorings and gear). The place of performance is within the United States, and the solicitation carries a DO-C9 priority rating.
