NADTC Initial Spares

The Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command (NAWCTSD) is seeking to procure commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) spare parts and components for the Naval Aviation Distributed Training Center (NADTC) Expansion at Naval Air Station Oceana, Virginia. The procurement includes computer hardware, monitors, networking equipment, power management systems, audio-visual equipment, and control modules necessary to upgrade the high-fidelity system trainer for Distributed Mission Training (DMT) capabilities. The government is prioritizing equipment compatibility and continuity with existing training devices while maintaining low implementation risk, and anticipates competing this requirement under Revolutionary Federal Acquisition Regulation Overhaul (RFO) Part 12 as a potential small business set-aside. Interested small business sources must submit written technical capabilities and firm information by email by 1700 Eastern Standard Time on April 15, 2026, including company registration details (SAM.gov name, CAGE code, Unique Entity ID), small business status confirmation, socio-economic designations, and a statement detailing capability to meet requirements with relevant contract experience. The government anticipates releasing the Request for Quote (RFQ) in April 2026, with contract award expected in May 2026. Responses are limited to four pages in Microsoft Word format and are strictly voluntary for planning purposes only, as this Sources Sought Notice does not constitute a solicitation or commitment by the government to award a contract.

This procurement involves 67 line items of COTS components with quantities ranging from one to five units per item, organized across multiple equipment categories including Dell servers and monitors, Ruckus and Cisco networking infrastructure, APC UPS units, Extron audio-visual equipment, WAGO control modules, and various peripheral devices. No set-aside designation has been applied to this opportunity, though the government has indicated it may compete the requirement as a potential small business set-aside in the future. The procurement does not identify any incumbent contractors or current vendors. All materials must be delivered as a single consolidated shipment no later than February 15, 2027, ensuring continuity and compatibility with the existing NAS Oceana NADTC training infrastructure. The government has not disclosed an estimated contract value or budget range in this pre-solicitation notice. This focused modernization initiative aims to enhance distributed mission training capabilities through strategic hardware and display technology upgrades without impacting the existing training curriculum.
