Norfolk Naval Shipyard is soliciting repair and evaluation services for KITCO Fiber Optic Certifier OLTS units under a single-source, Firm Fixed Price contract designated as N4215826QN028, with a response deadline of July 6, 2026. The contract, issued to KITCO, covers the assessment and repair of eleven Code 950 KITCO Optical Loss Test Sets, primarily Model MAX-945-NAV-M2042, to support waterfront operations managed by the Mid-Atlantic Regional Calibration Center. Performance is required from July 10, 2026, through July 9, 2027, with all units to be delivered to Timothy Nalevanko at the Norfolk Naval Shipyard in Portsmouth, Virginia, during standard business hours. The work includes warranty-covered repairs and non-warranty repairs requiring prior government approval through contract modification, with acceptance coordinated through the NAVSEA DoDAAC N42158 and performed by the Technical Point of Contact. All contractors must secure a DBIDS card for physical access to the shipyard unless they hold a valid Common Access Card, and compliance with numerous Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) clauses is mandatory, including prohibitions on covered telecommunications equipment, trafficking in persons, hexavalent chromium, and acquisition from the Xinjiang region. The contract incorporates FAR clauses related to payment processing via Electronic Funds Transfer and Wide Area Workflow, prompt payment discounts, termination for convenience, and safeguarding controlled information. Contractors must also comply with cybersecurity standards, submit an active Unique Entity Identifier and CAGE code, and maintain SAM registration. The solicitation requires adherence to safety protocols, annual OSHA reporting, and use of sustainable products, and includes provisions for long-term contract reporting that trigger updated small business status certifications prior to option exercises. Although the total contract value is not specified due to the absence of unit pricing, all line items are structured as Firm Fixed Price with no option quantities or price ceilings defined. The payment office is identified by DoDAAC N50082, and invoicing must be submitted exclusively through WAWF using approved document types, with no use of IPP permitted. The contracted work is administered by a Procuring Contracting Officer and supported by a Contract Specialist and TPOC, with no separate Contracting Officer’s Representative appointed.
