About this opportunity

Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division (NSWCCD) is seeking to procure General Standards Corporation analog-to-digital converter cards and associated interface cards under a brand-name only solicitation. The procurement specifically requires 33 Analog Input Boards (32-Channel 24-bit Delta-Sigma cPCI 6U Board with rear I/O) and 5 transition modules that serve as critical spare parts for the Monitoring Signal Data Converter on OHIO Class SSBN submarines. These components are essential for acquiring noise and vibration data from accelerometers mounted throughout the ships, and their failure would cause significant degradation in monitoring subsystem performance. The government will evaluate quotes on a lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) basis, prioritizing price and technical capability, with quoters required to provide proof of authorized distributor status, country of origin information, and Trade Agreements Act compliance. Key deadlines include questions due by September 11, 2025 at 12:00 PM EST and quote packages due by September 15, 2025 at 4:00 PM EST.

This procurement is designated as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 334418 with a size standard of 750 employees, utilizing Simplified Acquisition Procedures for a firm fixed-price purchase order. While no specific contract value is disclosed, the procurement falls under the simplified acquisition threshold and involves specialized electronic components that are part of the Allowance Parts List for submarine monitoring systems. The required delivery date is November 30, 2025, with performance taking place at Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division Det Puget Sound in Silverdale, Washington. Although this is structured as a brand-name solicitation, the government has indicated that interested parties who can provide equal items may submit capabilities statements by the September 15 deadline, though any decision to make this competitive remains solely at the government's discretion. The sole-source justification emphasizes that these are critical spare parts where alternative materials have not been considered due to their specific integration requirements with existing submarine monitoring systems.
