This solicitation, issued by the Department of Defense through Navsup Weapon Systems Support, seeks the procurement of a specific defense component identified as PLUG with NSN 5935-LLF02N907 and part number BACC63CT17-35PN, for a quantity of one unit. It is a single-item solicitation posted on April 10, 2026, with a response deadline of May 11, 2026. The procurement aligns with NAICS code 334417, denoting electronic connector manufacturing, and is not set aside for any socioeconomic category. Delivery and performance are expected at the contractor's facility in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with FOB origin terms, transferring title and risk upon delivery to the carrier. The likely contract type is firm-fixed-price, evidenced by the solicitation context though not explicitly stated. The contract incorporates extensive federal acquisition regulations and defense acquisition regulations clauses covering management systems (such as SAM registration), trade restrictions, subcontracting policies for commercial products, unique item identification, cybersecurity, payment standards, and whistleblower protections. The packaging, preservation, and marking requirements comply primarily with MIL-STD-2073-1 and MIL-STD-129, including detailed instructions for packaging levels, pallet types, wood packaging compliance (ISPM 15), barrier materials, electrostatic discharge protections, and mandated marking such as DLR labels and 2D barcoding to support traceability and shelf-life control. ESD standards and qualified product lists govern sensitive item handling. Inspection and acceptance are to be performed mainly at origin by government administrative offices or consignees, adhering to ISO 9001, SAE AS9100, and calibration standards, with provisions for handling nonconforming supplies through supply discrepancy reports. Award evaluation varies by solicitation but generally involves either a trade-off process prioritizing past performance over price or a lowest-price technically acceptable (LPTA) approach emphasizing technical acceptability first. Past performance is assessed using DoD’s Supplier Performance Risk System, while pricing plays a secondary or determining role depending on the evaluation scheme. Payment submissions must be conducted electronically via Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF), with no alternative invoicing methods authorized. Special contract requirements mandate use of the Workflow Pro Mod Assist system and require compliance with cybersecurity standards (NIST SP 800-171), prohibition of procurement from restricted sources such as the Maduro regime and Xinjiang region, and allow release of sensitive proposal data to the AbilityOne Program support contractor under strict confidentiality.
