Screw cap

The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command is requesting quotes for commercial hex cap screws manufactured from nickel copper aluminum alloy (QQ-N-286, UNS N05500) through a Request for Quote (RFQ) solicitation number N0040626QS113. The Navy requires five line items of screws in various specifications and lengths, with a total quantity of 210 pieces across all line items. Quotes must be submitted by January 22, 2026 at 12:00 AM, providing offerors with only two business days to prepare their responses. Award will be made on a single-award basis to the offeror deemed most advantageous, with evaluation based on technical factors including delivery date, price, and past performance in no order of relative importance. All offerors must be registered in SAM and provide detailed manufacturer information including name, size, part number, and country of origin for each line item. Invoicing will be submitted through WAWF, and all packaging and marking must comply with ASTM-D-3951 standards with traceable commercial freight shipment required.

This solicitation is designated as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) set-aside with 100% preference for WOSB concerns, restricting competition to qualified women-owned small business entities. The contract is on a firm fixed price basis with delivery required by June 28, 2026 to SRF and JRMC Yokosuka, Japan (DoDAAC N62758), with the Government arranging and paying all transportation costs under FOB Origin terms through NAVSUP WSS. No incumbent contractor or award value has been identified in the solicitation documents. The relatively small quantity of fasteners and compressed timeline suggest this is a routine procurement for Navy maintenance or operational needs at the Yokosuka facility. Interested small businesses should ensure SAM registration is current and prepare technical specifications and pricing documentation immediately given the abbreviated solicitation period.
