It is a total small business set-aside with the NAICS code 334111, which carries a small business size standard of 1,250 employees, and is awarded on a firm-fixed-price basis under the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation methodology. The procurement encompasses a comprehensive list of new, brand-name-only hardware and software components, including a Dell PowerEdge R760xs server, Cisco Catalyst 9200L switches with multiple licensing tiers, power supplies, cabling, racks mounts, and Moxa device servers—all required to be furnished as originally manufactured, without remanufactured or gray market alternatives.

All offers must include a complete technical and pricing submission via email, containing a specification or configuration list, CAGE code, delivery lead time, and country of origin; failure to include any of these elements will result in rejection. FOB destination is preferred, and if FOB origin is proposed, detailed shipping information—including shipping point, cost, dimensions, and weight—must be included. The government will evaluate proposals strictly based on price ranking, with technical acceptability assessed only after identifying the lowest price offer(s); any offer found technically unacceptable will be eliminated, and consideration will proceed to the next lowest-priced offer until a technically acceptable and fair-priced bid is found. The contract must be awarded to a responsible offeror with an active SAM.gov registration in compliance with FAR requirements, and all terms and conditions in the solicitation must be accepted without modification or must be explicitly flagged with justification for any exceptions. Delivery is required to the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory in Monterey, California, with no backdating of maintenance or software license periods permitted. Options, if any, will be evaluated as part of the total price but will not obligate the government to exercise them. The response deadline is August 12, 2026, and only email submissions

ALL QUESTIONS REGARDING THE SOLICITATION SHALL BE SUBMITTED VIA EMAIL.
The government intends to award a purchase order as a result of this combined synopsis/solicitation that will include the terms and conditions set forth herein. Award may be made without discussions or negotiations; therefore, prospective contractors should have an active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) database (www.sam.gov) in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 4.1102 and Part 52.204-7 when submitting a response to this solicitation.
The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:
Lowest Price Technically Acceptable - Offers will be ranked lowest to highest according to price. A price analysis will be conducted to determine whether the lowest price will result from a single award or multiple awards. Based on the price analysis, the lowest price offer or multiple offers, will be forwarded to the requiring activity for technical evaluation (offer(s), in accordance with the specifications, will be deemed either technically acceptable or technically unacceptable). If the lowest price offer or offers is found technically acceptable and the pricing determined fair and reasonable by the Contracting Officer, evaluation will be deemed complete and award will be made based on the lowest price offer(s). If the lowest price offer is determined technically unacceptable, another analysis will be conducted amongst the remaining offers to determine if a single or multiple awards will provide the lowest price. The lowest price offer(s) will be sent for technical evaluation. This process is repeated in order of price until an offer or combination of offers is deemed technically acceptable and price is determined fair and reasonable.
Options. When applicable, the Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).
Terms and Conditions. To facilitate the award process, all quotes must include a statement regarding the terms and conditions herein as follows:
"The terms and conditions in the solicitation are acceptable to be included in the award document without modification, deletion, or addition."
OR
"The terms and conditions in the solicitation are acceptable to be included in the award document with the exception, deletion, or addition of the following:"
Exceptions. Offeror shall list exception(s) and rationale for the exception(s).
Submission shall be received not later than the response date listed above. Late submissions shall be treated in accordance with the solicitation provision at FAR 52.212-1(f). E-mailed submissions are accepted and are the preferred form of submission. Receipt will be verified by the date/time stamp on fax or e-mail.
