Power and Energy System Supply for Underwater Systems

The contract seeks the supply of compact, long-duration power solutions including batteries or fuel cells designed for use in submerged detection and defeat systems operating in remote and harsh marine environments. These power systems must be engineered to endure extreme underwater conditions, ensuring reliable, uninterrupted operation over extended missions with minimal maintenance. The technology must support mission-critical functions in challenging oceanic settings where traditional power sources are impractical or insufficient. The solicitation is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 335911, indicating a focus on electric lighting and wiring equipment manufacturing, but applied here to advanced energy systems for defense and maritime applications. The opportunity was posted on July 24, 2026, with a response deadline of August 7, 2026, at 4:59 PM. Place of performance is specified as New London, and the contracting authority is the Department of Homeland Security through its Headquarter Contract Operations office. While no set-aside status or point of contact is provided, bidders must align their proposals with the technical and environmental demands of undersea surveillance and defense systems.
