The Department of the Navy, Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) intends to issue two (2) full-and-open, competitive solicitations pursuant to FAR Part 15 procedures in the third quarter (Q3) of fiscal year 2025 (FY25) for the LCS MM Program; specifically, one (1) contract vehicle for LCS Mission Modules (MM) Hardware Production and one (1) contract vehicle for LCS MM and Small Unmanned Surface Vessel (sUSV) Operations and Sustainment (O&S) Support. LCS MMs support the LCS fleet in its mission to defeat asymmetric threats and to ensure naval and joint force access into congested littoral regions. The LCS MM Program has employed an incremental development approach to deliver capabilities, allowing for insertion of mature capabilities throughout the life of the program without the need for modifications to the LCS seaframe. The LCS MM Program is also the integrator of separately procured MM equipment (e.g., berthing augmentation, gun and missile weapon systems, mine countermeasures payload delivery systems, etc.) and sUSVs (e.g. interceptors, maritime domain awareness, logistics, etc.). LCS MM Program product lines make use of common support containers, designs for which are based upon an International Organization for Standardization (ISO)-compliant shipping container (i.e., Conex box) to preserve anonymity and provide “roll on, roll off” capabilities for LCS seaframe and sUSV primary mission sets. This pre-solicitation synopsis is issued by the NAVSEA Contracts Directorate (SEA 02), and the LCS MM Program Office (PMS 420) has provided one (1) draft Statement of Work (SOW) for LCS MM Hardware Production and one (1) draft SOW for LCS MM and sUSV O&S Support (ATTACHMENTS 1 & 2). Respondents may elect to respond to either the draft Hardware Production SOW, the draft O&S Support SOW, or both draft SOWs. Pursuant to FAR 15.201(c), the primary purposes of this pre-solicitation synopsis are to improve small business access to acquisition information and to enhance competition by identifying contracting and subcontracting opportunities. Further, and pursuant to FAR 15.201(c), this pre-solicitation synopsis is issued for information and planning purposes and to allow industry the opportunity to verify reasonableness and feasibility of the requirement, as well as to promote competition. This pre-solicitation synopsis is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government, nor will the Government reimburse respondents for any questions submitted or the information provided in response to this notice. The Government may or may not respond to questions or comments submitted. The Government may use information and feedback provided by respondents to inform future solicitation(s) as necessary. Respondents are solely responsible for properly marking and clearly identifying any proprietary information or trade secrets contained within a response. All questions and comments shall be submitted electronically via email to the following POCs no later than 5:00 PM Eastern Time on July 15, 2025. Respondents shall submit questions and comments using the template provided as an ATTACHMENT 3 to this notice. NAVSEA will ONLY accept unclassified responses.

Introduction: This notice includes both a Navy Request for Information and details regarding an upcoming Government Industry Day. Participation in one of these actions or events does not preclude participation in the other, nor preclude any future participation in thls opportunity in the future. This posting includes the following enclosure(s): 1) RFI for LCS MM an d sUSV Programs; 2) Registration FORM - not not yet created; 3) Question and Answer form [XXXXXXXX ADD ANY OTHERS] Request for Information (RFI): (See Enclosure 1) This RFI is issued by the Department of the Navy, Naval Sea Systems Command, Program Executive Office Unmanned and Small Combatants (PEO USC) Mission Modules (MM) and Small Unmanned Surface Vehicles (sUSV) Program Office (PMS 420). Information is sought to help determine the level of interest, technical and manufacturing capabilities, knowledge, experience level, and qualifications of Industry to meet the Government’s needs. The Navy is approaching this opportunity with the ultimate goal of increasing competition. With this market research, the Navy intends to explore potential opportunities to divide the scope of work into multiple procurements to include small business participation and examine alternate solutions to meet future LCS MM and sUSV program requirements. Additionally, the Navy is interested in technical, administrative, and business risks to achieve the desired outcomes. These efforts are intended to serve as a follow-on to the scope of work performed under contract N00024-17-C-6311. The Navy is seeking information regarding solutions that can meet the requirements of the LCS Mission Modules and Small USV programs as described in this RFI. For reviewing responses, the Navy has organized efforts into two areas: (1) Production hardware and (2) Operations and Sustainment Support. The Navy is willing to consider other solutions to segregate and organize requirements into distinct efforts. The Navy may use the RFI responses to shape any future solicitation approaches, such as separating the requirements and associated efforts into multiple solicitations. The details of this request are included in the “LCS MM sUSV Programs Request for Information” and any other associated references and enclosures. All responses should be UNCLASSIFIED. RFI respondents may submit written questions and comments related to this RFI using the RFI Question Submittal Form. For ease of Government review and to minimize response time, RFI respondents shall submit this form in the original file format. Do not convert the form to Portable Document Format (PDF). To ensure the Government understands the context of the question, RFI respondents shall detail the applicable document name, page, paragraph, Top Level Requirement or other specific citation to which the question applies. QUESTIONS SHALL NOT CONTAIN ANY CLASSIFIED INFORMATION. RFI respondents shall not submit comments, questions, or inquiries to any Government representative other than the Procuring Contracting Officer and Contract Specialist identified below. The Government intends to distribute questions and Government responses directly to interested RFI respondents electronically. The Government may answer none, some, or all questions submitted. In the event that a RFI respondent wishes to submit a comment or question that the RFI respondent believes addresses a subject that is specific or proprietary to the RFI respondent, then the RFI respondent shall mark the question accordingly on the submission form and provide justification to support its claim. If the Government concurs with this identification, the Government will respond only to that RFI respondent. If the Government does not concur with this identification, it will inform the submitting RFI respondent and will not provide any further response. The RFI respondent may resubmit the question without the proprietary marking. The deadline for receipt of questions is 14 Calendar days after the date the RFI was issued. Any questions received after this date may not be answered prior to the due date for RFI responses. DISCLAIMER This notice is for market research purposes only and does NOT constitute a request for proposal. This notice shall not be construed as a contract, a promise to contract, or as a commitment of any kind by the Government. Prior to release of the formal solicitation, the Government is not soliciting, nor will it accept, proposals as a result of this Request for Information (RFI).

The Government will not reimburse the cost of any submission or other expense in response to this RFI -- the entire cost of any submission or other expense will be at the sole expense of the source submitting the information.
