Written by GovTribe AI · Mar 13, 2025

The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) is seeking a multiple award contract for Radio Frequency Distribution and Control Systems (RFDACS) units and subcomponents, with associated obsolescence management and engineering services for the Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division in Newport, Rhode Island. The solicitation (N6660425R0006) requires contractors to manufacture, test, and deliver complete RFDACS OK-700 systems with 10 rack-mountable units, manage parts obsolescence, and provide engineering services for system improvements. Contractors must have a quality management system meeting ANSI/ISO/ASQ 9001-2015 standards and be capable of performing certification tests and program management reviews. The proposal response deadline is March 21, 2025, at 1400 EST, with questions and clarifications being addressed through published Q&A documents. Evaluation criteria will focus on technical capabilities, past performance, and the ability to meet complex manufacturing and engineering requirements for submarine electronic systems.

The contract is an unrestricted, follow-on procurement with a shared ceiling of $49,525,360 and a 60-month ordering period, anticipated to start on September 30, 2025. The previous contract was held by Serco, Inc., and this new solicitation includes Firm Fixed Price (FFP) and Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) contract line items (CLINs). Key CLINs include $44.4M for hardware production, $484K for obsolescence tasking, and $3.9M for engineering services, with a minimal $500 guarantee for post-award conference activities. The government will provide two pieces of Government Furnished Property (GFP): a Digital Computer (Unit 1) and an OE-538 Simulator, each valued around $10,000-$11,000. Work will primarily be performed at the contractor's facility, with some travel required to NUWC Division Newport in Rhode Island, and the contract includes provisions for managing technical data packages, conducting system testing, and addressing potential design or component obsolescence challenges.
