The Statement of Work (SOW) outlines the responsibilities of contractors for the Weapons Control and Integration Department at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren Division. The primary goal is to fabricate, assemble, and deliver Printed and Bare Circuit Boards (PCBs) and related hardware under an accelerated schedule in compliance with specified government standards. Key tasks include ordering Bill of Material (BOM) components, fabricating and assembling PCBs, and providing quality assurance through compliance certification.
The document mandates adherence to various IPC and ISO specifications for PCB production and electronic assemblies, emphasizing in-house manufacturing capabilities for specific board classes. It also details vendor performance criteria, stipulating that a vendor's acceptance rate must meet certain thresholds to maintain eligibility.
Security aspects require all work to remain unclassified and compliant with NIST standards, along with ITAR regulations. The document highlights the need for U.S.-based operations and includes federal supply codes relevant to printed circuit boards and electronic assemblies. Overall, this SOW serves as a framework for contractors to provide essential PCB services within U.S. defense frameworks while ensuring quality and regulatory compliance.
The document outlines the combined synopsis/solicitation N0017825Q4402 issued by the Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) for potential vendors interested in establishing a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for Printed Circuit Boards. The solicitation is prepared under FAR Parts 12 and 13, inviting vendors to submit necessary documentation by 13 August 2025. It emphasizes the BPA's role as a streamlined, as-needed procurement method that does not constitute a formal contract. Vendors are requested to demonstrate their technical capability through detailed statements and provide past performance references. The submission must adhere to specific formatting guidelines and be sent electronically to designated contract specialists. The synopsis aims to foster a competitive environment while maintaining flexibility in vendor selection based on past performance, with no minimum government obligation. This initiative supports the operational material needs of the NSWCDD, which encompasses various fabrication resources.
