How to bid on Gyrus Qual Cert Tracking for the Department of the Navy
What the Navy plans to buy
Naval Surface Warfare Center Indian Head Division intends to award Manan LLC, doing business as Gyrus Systems, a firm fixed-price purchase order for Gyrus Qual Cert Tracking & Training Platform licenses, source code packages, and certified technical support.
The Navy identifies Manan LLC as the software owner and sole known source for the proprietary materials and OEM-authorized support required for implementation and sustainment in the Government’s IL5 environment. This is a notice of intent to award without competition, not a request for quotes.
Deadline and what happens next
Interested parties may submit evidence of their capability by November 3, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. EST. The notice says the Navy will use responses only to decide whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
The Government retains discretion over whether to compete the purchase. It will not reimburse costs incurred to respond.
Who this opportunity may suit
This notice is most relevant to firms that can document a bona fide capability to meet the Navy’s stated requirement for the Gyrus platform, including the proprietary licenses, source code packages, or certified OEM technical support.
The listed NAICS code is 513210, and the FSC code is DA10. The notice says vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM).
How to respond
Send a written statement and capability documentation by email to Erica Sites at [email protected] by the stated deadline. Oral responses are not acceptable. The submission must provide clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government.
