The background of this procurement is that NSWC-CR is seeking information for market research purposes to procure engineering services and supplies for the maintenance of their current SRHM fabrication. These services and supplies are in support of the Office of Secretary of Defense. The intention is to award a Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) on a sole-source basis to Honeywell International Inc., the only DMEA-accredited manufacturer of Trusted SRHM components used by the DoD.

Interested parties are requested to provide information on their capability to provide the required support. This includes company and product literature, a white paper, and other pertinent information such as performance parameters, availability, testing reports, and budgetary estimates. Responses should be submitted to the designated points of contact listed in the document.

It is important to note that this RFI is for market research purposes only and does not constitute an Invitation for Bids (IFB), a Request for Quote (RFQ), or a Request for Proposal (RFP).
