About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Military Sealift Command is soliciting quotes for unrep (underway replenishment) chains to support the USNS Charles Drew (T-AKE 10). This Request for Quote (RFQ N3220526Q7103) seeks commercial products essential for the ship's critical replenishment operations, with strict compliance requirements established by Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) under drawing 5363392 Rev D. The procurement qualifies as critical ship equipment due to the catastrophic consequences of failure, including loss of underway replenishment capability and potential hazards to the ship, crew, and environment. Quotes must be submitted by April 7, 2026 at 10:00 AM local time, with the contracting officer Cameron Alvey available at 564-226-1251 for inquiries. The evaluation will prioritize suppliers meeting NAVSEA specifications and standards, with delivery required by April 29, 2026.
The solicitation is designated as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) set-aside. Three line items are required on a firm fixed-price basis: 1,000 feet of roller cottered double-strand chain (MPN 5363392), 10 connector links (MPN 160-2 C/L), and 10 offset links (MPN 160-2 O/L), all dipped per specification. Known capable suppliers include Norfolk Bearing, Rexnard Corp, and Browning Manufacturing, though all suppliers must receive NAVSEA approval. The specific dollar value of the procurement is not disclosed in the available documentation. Performance location is Military Sealift Command BATS in San Diego, California (DoDAAC N40443), with inspection and acceptance coordination occurring at both origin and destination through the Principal Port Engineer in Norfolk, Virginia.
