The U.S. Navy is conducting market research through a Sources Sought Notice for the acquisition of a Raytheon X-Band Bow Radar system for the USNS HECTOR A. CAFFERATA JR. (ESB 8), with the specific requirement being the Raytheon Model LPR A25 radar and its associated pedestal and motor assembly identified by part number 770-001.NG001. This notice is explicitly not a solicitation, request for quotation, or proposal, and no contract will be awarded directly from this notice; it serves solely to gather industry input on the availability, capability, and responsiveness of potential suppliers. Interested firms are requested to respond via email to Krista Hendricks by July 14, 2026, at 10:00 AM EDT, providing their company profile including the UEI number, CAGE Code, number of employees, office locations, and a statement regarding their small business status. The notice strongly encourages responses from small businesses, women-owned small businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, certified HUBZone small businesses, and certified 8(a) small businesses. The procurement is being managed by Mschq Norfolk within the Department of Defense, and while the place of performance is listed as Norfolk, Connecticut, this appears to be an error as Norfolk is in Virginia, where the contracting office is located. No pricing, delivery schedules, evaluation criteria, inspection requirements, or technical specifications beyond the identified make and model are provided, as this is strictly a market research action to define potential sources before any formal procurement process begins.
