Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPSs) and cables

The Naval Air Warfare Center, Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) Lakehurst, New Jersey intends to procure Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPSs) and cables through a five-year Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract. The agency plans to negotiate on a sole source basis with Iris Technology Corporation under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, citing that only one responsible source can satisfy the agency's requirements. The procurement is justified because only Iris manufactures UPSs and cables that meet the unique combination of requirements for form, fit, function, and performance while maintaining configuration management and interoperability within the RIS FoS and have passed required testing. The government anticipates issuing delivery orders on a Firm-Fixed-Price basis. Interested parties have fifteen days from the publication date of July 1, 2025 to submit responses, with a due date of July 16, 2025, and must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) for consideration.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and is not designated for small businesses or other socioeconomic categories. Iris Technology Corporation (CAGE code: 78535) is identified as the sole source contractor that the government intends to negotiate with for this requirement. While the notice does not specify exact award values or budget ranges, the five-year IDIQ structure suggests a long-term procurement relationship with multiple delivery orders anticipated over the contract period. The government emphasizes that this is not a request for competitive proposals, though they will consider all responses received within the fifteen-day window solely to determine whether to conduct a competitive procurement. The procurement falls under NAICS code 335999 for All Other Miscellaneous Electrical Equipment and Component Manufacturing and PSC code 6150 for Miscellaneous Electric Power and Distribution Equipment.
