About this opportunity
The Naval Research Laboratory, under the Department of the Navy Secretary of the Navy Office of Naval Research, is seeking potential sources for a Specialty Fiber Optic Draw Tower through this Pre-Solicitation Notice issued on December 1, 2025, with a response deadline of December 12, 2025. This Request for Information (RFI) is intended for information and planning purposes only and does not constitute a formal solicitation or commitment to award a contract. Interested firms must submit a capability statement demonstrating their ability to meet the minimum specifications and characteristics outlined in the attached Salient Characteristics document. The evaluation will be based on demonstrated capability to fulfill this specialized requirement, with the government conducting an assessment of potential sources' technical qualifications and experience. Respondents should note that this RFI does not represent a binding offer, and the government reserves the right to decline to issue a subsequent Request for Quote (RFQ) based on responses received.
No set-aside designation has been applied to this procurement opportunity, meaning all eligible contractors may compete. The pre-solicitation notice does not identify any current contractors or incumbents, nor does it specify an award value or budget range for the potential future requirement. The specific quantity, technical specifications, and detailed timeline for delivery or performance will be determined based on the government's evaluation of capability statements and the subsequent development of formal solicitation documents if the requirement materializes. Interested contractors should carefully review the Salient Characteristics document for detailed technical requirements and should be prepared to respond quickly if a formal RFQ is issued following this information-gathering phase. The government will not reimburse any costs associated with submitting responses to this RFI, and respondents should understand that participation carries no guarantee of future contract opportunity.
