• TDP files (3D CAD models and drawings) are available upon request via secure transmittal (e.g., DoD SAFE). These files are Distribution Statement D and CUI Category Controlled Technical Information (CTI) and require prior authorization.

• Offerors may use specialized gauges for inspection, subject to government approval.

• Manufacturer's specifications for recommended stock parts will take precedence over conflicting drawing tolerances.

• Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2 (Self) Assessment must be on record in SPRS and maintained.

• This is a Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) firm-fixed-price (FFP) purchase order.

• Delivery is required within 8 weeks after contract award.

• Inspection and Acceptance will occur at the delivery site.

• PSC: 3470.

• Quotes are due no later than 1000 EST on May 18, 2026.

• Proposals must be clear, detailed, and logical, avoiding mere repetition of government requirements.

• Include any assumptions, exceptions, or deviations.

• For Past Performance, submit information for two similar procurements provided to NAWCTSD in the last 3 years, including POC details.

• Award will be a FFP contract based on a trade-off between Past Performance and Price, considering Technically Acceptable proposals.

• Technical Acceptability includes meeting all item specifications, CMMC Level 2, and the delivery date.

• Past Performance is considered more important than Price.

• Offerors must be registered in SAM with the correct NAICS code at the time of quote receipt.

• Full and open competitive basis.

• Contact Julide Alonso (julide.n.alonso.civ@us.navy.mil) or Jonathan Abbott (jonathan.d.abbott.civ@us.navy.mil) for TDP files or questions.
