About this opportunity

The Naval Research Laboratory issued a Notice of Intent to award a sole source purchase order to Wolfspeed for silicon carbide wafer bare substrates, with interested parties having until July 24, 2026 to demonstrate why competition would benefit the Government. This is not a competitive solicitation; NRL has determined that only Wolfspeed can satisfy the agency's requirements. The procurement will be executed under Simplified Acquisition Procedures (FAR 12.201-1) with an estimated value not exceeding the $350,000 simplified acquisition threshold. NAICS 334413 (Semiconductor and Related Device Manufacturing) applies, with PSC 6640 for laboratory equipment and supplies. Interested vendors must submit clear and convincing evidence within fifteen calendar days of publication that competition is advantageous to the Government; responses will be evaluated solely to determine whether NRL should pursue competitive procurement instead. The Government retains sole discretion to abandon the sole source approach based on responses received. No reimbursement will be provided for capability submissions. Point of contact: Richard Key at richard.a.key2.civ@us.navy.mil.
