Quick Summary
The Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division Newport (NUWCDIVNPT) intends to award a Firm Fixed Price purchase order for five (5) Lift Lines (green), Part #: SLR2-1. This is a sole source requirement for Peck & Hale, L.L.C. products, justified by their unique exterior anti-abrasion coating, extensive testing, and proven performance for torpedo recovery. Quotes are due March 26, 2026.
Scope of Work
The requirement is for five (5) specialized Lift Lines, Part #: SLR2-1. These lines are critical for torpedo recovery missions, featuring a unique anti-abrasion urethane coating that has undergone extensive testing and a four-year observation period to ensure mission compliance. The government has determined that testing and approving another manufacturer's lift lines would cause unacceptable additional costs and schedule delays.
