This work is centered on identifying environmentally compliant alternatives to ensure compliance with federal environmental regulations and to eliminate the use of substances that contribute to stratospheric ozone depletion. All proposed substitutions must be thoroughly assessed for technical feasibility, safety, and performance equivalence to the existing materials. This subcontract is issued under NAICS code 541620 and is managed by the Active Devices Division of the Department of Defense, with performance based in Tracy, California, 95304-5000. The opportunity was posted on July 22, 2026, and responses are due by August 3, 2026.
