Quick Summary
The Department of the Navy (NAVSUP WEAPON SYSTEMS SUPPORT MECH) has issued a Presolicitation for the repair/modification of 15 underwater rodmeters (NSN 7H-6605-002092055). This requirement is for items needing engineering source approval by the design control activity due to specialized design, manufacturing knowledge, and data rights held by existing qualified sources. Interested parties, especially potential alternate sources, must meet stringent qualification requirements. Responses are due April 27, 2026.
Scope of Work
This presolicitation seeks sources for the repair/modification of 15 underwater rodmeters (NSN 7H-6605-002092055, TDP VER 005).
