0452 Automated Digital Network System (ADNS) Integrated Logistics Support for USS QUENTIN WALSH (DDG 132)

The contract pertains to the Integrated Logistics Support for the Automated Digital Network System (ADNS) aboard the USS QUENTIN WALSH (DDG 132), a guided-missile destroyer currently under construction. The scope of work involves providing comprehensive logistical services to ensure the long-term operability, maintainability, and sustainment of the ADNS, a critical digital communication and network infrastructure system integral to the ship’s command, control, and combat systems. This support encompasses technical documentation, spare parts provisioning, training, field service support, and supply chain management specifically tailored to the unique operational demands of the vessel and its embedded digital networks. The contracting activity is led by Naval Information Warfare Systems Command through its Pacific office, with performance centered in San Diego, California, where the ship is expected to be commissioned and integrated into the fleet. The North American Industry Classification System code 541330 indicates the work falls under other scientific and technical consulting services, suggesting a focus on specialized engineering and logistics expertise rather than manufacturing. The contracting officer, Bennett McDonald, and secondary point of contact Jack Klausen, are the designated leads for inquiries and procurement coordination. This forecasted contract is positioned for future award, with no set-aside classification indicated, and provides potential contractors an early opportunity to prepare proposals for sustained support of a next-generation naval platform’s digital architecture.
