Quick Summary
The Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Crane intends to procure Keysight Electrical and Electronic Equipment on a sole source basis from Keysight Technologies Inc. This acquisition is critical for the SPY-3 TRIMM program, a new developmental effort to establish organic testing and repair capabilities for SPY-3 TRIMM antenna modules. Capability statements are due by June 16, 2026, 11:00 PM Eastern Time.
Scope of Work
NSWC Crane requires specific Keysight equipment, including:
- USB Sensors (Part Numbers U2002A and U2002A-H26)
- USB Power Sensors
- Predelivery Calibration services
- Low Profile Modular Power System Mainframes (Part Numbers N6700C and N6702C)
- Rack Mount Kits
- DC Power Modules (various specifications: 35V/3A/100W, 20V/15A/300W, 35V/8.5A/300W)
- Surcharge All items include 3 years of KeysightCare Technical Support and 3 years of Return to Keysight Warranty. DFARS 252.211-7003 requirements apply for certain line items.
Justification for Sole Source
This equipment is a cornerstone for the SPY-3 TRIMM program, which currently relies on unsustainable loaned equipment. Its acquisition is an urgent step to complete the Automated Test Equipment (ATE) test set required for depot timeline entry and certification. The requested equipment forms a uniquely integrated and proprietary modular system, with hardware, firmware, communication protocols, and software proprietary to Keysight, making "or-equal" components incompatible.
