NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (Navy) wants fiber optic cable (product class 60). Quotes are due by email on October 26, 2026. The notice does not say how many, what exact cable, or where it ships, and the item needs government source approval before award.
Watch out for
- Source approval needed. A new supplier has to prove it can make the item to Navy standards, which takes effort and may not finish in time.
THESE ITEMS REQUIRE GOVERNMENT SOURCE APPROVAL PRIOR TO AWARD.
- Award may go ahead without waiting for approval. If your approval request can't be processed in time, the Navy may continue the award because of fleet needs, so you could lose out.
AWARD OF REQUIREMENT MAY BE CONTINUED BASED ON FLEET SUPPORT NEEDS.
- Set-aside status unclear. The SAM.gov field says no set-aside, but the clause list includes a total small business set-aside notice; confirm in the solicitation.
