20 - Ship and Marine Equipment

The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) is in the process of drafting MIL-STD-1365C, which establishes general design criteria for handling equipment associated with weapons and related items. The objective of this effort is to develop specifications and standards that accommodate a variety of design approaches while promoting a broad supplier base. Interested parties can request copies of the draft document via email before the review period ends on August 17, 2009. Once finalized, the document will be accessible through the ASSIST Online database. This initiative is related to the ship and marine equipment sector and is identified under solicitation number N0002409SNA31 with a NAICS code 811310, which pertains to commercial and industrial machinery and equipment repair and maintenance. It is important to note that this notice is not a solicitation for bids or proposals but rather part of the standards development process managed by NAVSEA to guide the design and manufacture of handling equipment in naval operations.
