About this opportunity
The Naval Sea Systems Command is procuring tape testing services to evaluate ten different samples of red duct tape from various prior contracts to assess potential shelf life extension. The contractor must perform seven specific tests on these samples at their own facility, including adhesion to steel, adhesion to backing, quick stick, elongation, tensile strength, curling property, water penetration rate, and unwind characteristics, all following established ASTM testing standards with precise measurement requirements. The testing must conform to strict specifications outlined in the Statement of Work, such as adhesion to steel at 55 ounces per inch with 10% tolerance and tensile strength of minimum 40 pounds per inch. The solicitation was posted on July 25, 2025, with responses due by July 28, 2025, though the agency noted an extension due to lack of feedback. The contract period begins upon award and must be completed by September 30, 2025.
This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, specifically targeting women-owned small businesses (WOSB) with a size standard of $19,000,000 under NAICS code 541380 for Testing Laboratories and Services. The total contract value is listed at $19,000,000 with firm fixed pricing arrangements. The work involves testing ten rolls of red tape samples that must be maintained with NNSY identification tags and segregated from other materials throughout the testing process. Performance will occur at the contractor's facility rather than at government locations, with work commencing only after official email notification from the Norfolk Naval Shipyard Purchasing Agent. The place of performance is designated as Portsmouth, Virginia, indicating the regional focus of this Norfolk Naval Shipyard requirement.
