About this opportunity

The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division (NSWC-CR) is seeking to acquire modified commercial trailers through a sole source procurement designated as "Hypersonic Trailers" for Fiscal Year 2025. The requirement consists of two 53-foot long flatbed trailers equipped with environmental cooling units and specialized tarp systems that include both black tarps for winter months and light gray tarps for summer months, each utilizing trolley systems for operation. This firm fixed-price contract falls under NAICS code 336212 (Truck Trailer Manufacturing) and PSC category K023, with contractors required to maintain proper registration in both the System for Award Management (SAM) and the Joint Certification Program (JCP) to access controlled attachments. The solicitation operates under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii), with the government intending to negotiate exclusively with one identified source. Proposals are due by 2:00 PM Eastern Time on September 8, 2025, and the contract carries a DX-C9 priority rating under the Defense Priorities and Allocations System.

Despite being structured as a sole source procurement, the government has identified Wartech Engineering LLC of Romulus, Michigan (CAGE code 5M9K0) as the intended contractor, citing their exclusive possession of the necessary "Level 3" Product level technical data package required for this specialized equipment. Interestingly, the government file summary indicates this is actually designated as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) set-aside with a size standard of 500 employees, which appears to conflict with the sole source designation in the main solicitation notice. The contract includes two line items: CLIN 0001 for the trailers themselves and CLIN 0002 for associated technical data requirements, with delivery required within five months of contract award. Performance will take place with delivery to NSWC Crane in Indiana, where inspection and acceptance will occur at the destination facility.
