What the Navy is buying
The Department of the Navy seeks design and engineering support for Compatibility Test Facility installations, systems, and equipment under NSWCPD. The work covers existing and proposed hull, machinery, and electrical systems and equipment.
Support includes assessing test-site capacity, including floor loading, support-system capacity, and available power. It also includes Mission Readiness Panel assessments, Integrated Test Readiness Reviews, and Integrated Schedule Reviews. The task order has a five-year period of performance.
Key date and deadline
The opportunity was published October 26, 2026. Proposals or offers are due November 6, 2026, at 5:00 PM ET.
Plan to submit before the deadline and allow time to complete the required portal steps. The solicitation details determine what must be submitted and how; review them carefully.
Who can bid
This is a small-business set-aside for SeaPort-NxG MAC holders only. The notice says no other offers will be considered, so a firm must hold a SeaPort-NxG MAC to be eligible.
The work is suited to firms with relevant design and engineering capabilities for test and evaluation facilities, systems, and equipment.
