This procurement arises from the U.S. Government's lack of technical data rights necessary for competitive bidding, as outlined in the Federal Acquisition Regulation, making Kongsberg the only responsible source capable of fulfilling the requirements. The contract is expected to be awarded in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025, with a performance period from February 2025 through March 2027. Interested parties may submit capability statements within 15 calendar days of this notice, and all communications should be directed to Tessanna H. Curtis at tessanna.curtis@usmc.mil or Cori L.
