About this opportunity
The General Services Administration is issuing a Request for Information on wrist watches and related timepieces, with responses due by May 26, 2026 at 5:00 PM EST. This RFI precedes a prospective Blanket Purchase Agreement covering 75 wrist watch models and accessories across 59 National Stock Numbers, anticipated to span a one-year base period with nine one-year option periods. No set-aside applies.
The RFI seeks vendor capability and capacity information to inform GSA's procurement strategy; participation is voluntary, responses are non-binding, and the Government will not award a contract or reimburse preparation costs based on RFI submissions. Respondents must use the provided Google Form (https://forms.gle/KEnjuXfmAGEYFUqJA) and reference Attachments A (NSN listing) and B (Item Purchase Descriptions).
Procurement scope encompasses mechanical and quartz wrist watches, digital stopwatches, chronometers, and bracelets meeting MIL-PRF-46374 standards where applicable. Watches include pilot, navigator, diver, and search-and-rescue variants with case materials of 316L stainless steel, composite fibershell, and high-impact plastic, and water resistance from 3 ATM to 30 ATM. Many items require U.S. NRC licensing compliance per 10 CFR 32.22 for tritium-based luminous components (26–30 millicuries). All items must meet packaging and marking requirements under ASTM D3951 and FED-STD-123H (civilian) or MIL-STD-129R (military), including mandatory barcode marking and engraving with NSN, contract number, CAGE code, and serial number. FAR clause 52.211-6 (Brand Name or Equal) applies to multiple items; procurement preference targets highest post-consumer recycled content and energy-efficient products per FAR 23.403 and 23.203 where applicable. Warranty periods range from one to three years by NSN.
Jocelyn Vazquez-Wiggins, Contract Specialist (jocelyn.vazquez-wiggins@gsa.gov), is the point of contact.

Responses will be treated as information only and not as a proposal nor quote. The Government will not award a contract based on the feedback received from this RFI, nor will it provide reimbursement for costs associated with the preparation of submissions or the subsequent use of provided information.
