About this opportunity
The Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Crane is conducting a sole-source procurement for QuickTrex Corning fiber optic cable assemblies to support their RDTE, SRDTE, NMCI, and NIPR/SIPR Network infrastructure. The requirement specifically calls for two types of cable assemblies: a 288 Strand Corning ALTOS Outdoor Armored Direct Burial Rated Single Custody Pre-Terminated Fiber Optic Cable Assembly and a 144 Strand variant of the same product. This procurement is being conducted under FAR Part 13 procedures with the authority of FAR 13.106-1, and the government intends to negotiate with only one source due to the existing use of QuickTrex cables throughout the NSWC Crane base and the need for form, fit, and function compatibility. While other responsible sources may submit capability statements, the determination to compete is solely at the government's discretion. The solicitation was issued on June 20, 2025, with all offers due by June 27, 2025, at 12:00 AM Eastern Time.
Although the solicitation description indicates no set-aside is used, the attached government file suggests this may be designated as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) set-aside under NAICS code 335921 for Fiber Optic Cable Manufacturing. The sole source contractor identified is Lan Shack, located in Toms River, New Jersey, which serves as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for the QuickTrex product line. The procurement involves two specific fiber optic cable assemblies with different strand counts (288 and 144), though exact quantities and contract values are not specified in the available documentation. Performance will support the NSWC Crane facility's base-wide fiber network installation and repair operations, maintaining consistency with existing infrastructure and enabling seamless integration for network expansion.
