How to bid on Sensor, Ambient Temp, Repair/Modification for the DEPT of the Navy
What the Navy is buying and why it matters
The Department of the Navy is looking for a contractor to repair or modify an ambient temperature sensor. The specific part number is SYMZ-70254, with CAGE 05624. This is an opportunity for businesses specializing in equipment repair and modification.
The repair work must follow the contractor’s approved procedures. Key requirements include electrostatic-discharge controls, specific marking, and ensuring no mercury contamination. This is a critical piece of equipment, and proper repair ensures its continued operational function for the Navy.
Key dates and what happens at the deadline
The solicitation was published on September 11, 2026. All offers are due by September 24, 2026, at 4:30 PM ET. This deadline is firm, and proposals submitted after this time will likely not be considered.
The resultant award will be issued bilaterally, meaning the contractor's written acceptance is required before the contract is executed. Contractual documents are considered issued when deposited in the mail, transmitted by facsimile, or sent by electronic commerce methods like email.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity is suitable for firms with expertise in repairing or modifying electronic or sensor equipment, particularly those familiar with military standards and quality requirements. Companies that can demonstrate adherence to electrostatic discharge controls and specific marking standards will be well-suited.
If you are not the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), you must identify the OEM (company name and CAGE) and provide a signed letter of authorization as a distributor on the OEM's letterhead. This is a crucial requirement for non-OEM suppliers.

Practical tips for a competitive response
Carefully review all applicable documents, including MIL-STD-1686 and MIL-STD-130, REV N, as these define critical technical and marking requirements. Ensure your repair procedures align with ANSI/ESD S20.20 for electrostatic discharge control.
If your packaging location differs from your company address, provide the name, street address, and CAGE of that facility. For non-OEMs, securing the required letter of authorization from the OEM is essential and should be prioritized. Clearly detail your proposed repair process and cost breakdown in your submission.
