About this opportunity

The Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Atlantic, a component of the Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command, is seeking to procure a MOD Payload MAIM/Chassis Kit to support its fleet of Unmanned Surface Vessels (USVs) with MOD Payload compliance. This pre-solicitation notice indicates the Government's intent to award a Firm-Fixed-Price purchase order on a noncompetitive basis under FAR 13.106-1(b), based on the determination that only one responsible source can satisfy the agency's requirements. While the notice is not a competitive request for quotes, any responsible source believing it can fulfill the requirement may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation. Responses must be received by November 12, 2025, and should be directed to Miriam Johnson at miriam.e.johnson4.civ@us.navy.mil. All responding vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) with a valid Unique Entity ID and CAGE code, and the Government reserves the discretion to determine whether to conduct a competitive procurement based on the responses received.

This procurement is not subject to any set-aside designations and has identified Foxtrot Research Corp as the intended noncompetitive awardee, though the Government remains open to considering other sources that respond to the pre-solicitation. The requirement falls under NAICS Code 334511 (Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing) with a size standard of 1,350 employees, and is classified under PSC 5825 (Radio Navigation Equipment, Except Airborne). The pre-solicitation notice was posted on November 4, 2025, with a response deadline of November 12, 2025, allowing interested vendors approximately eight days to submit their capabilities. No specific award value or quantity details are disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, and the Government has not established an explicit timeline for final award determination or contract performance.
