59--CABLE ASSEMBLY,SPEC
This is a competitive, firm fixed-price solicitation for the manufacture and delivery of 80 AN/BRR-6 Tow Cable Assemblies. The government will provide 60 of the required cable crates as Government Furnished Property, but the proposal must include the price for procuring the remaining 20 crates. The work requires a rigorous first article testing process involving both destructive and non-destructive testing of two separate cable specimens, with government approval required before production can begin. The tow cable itself is a source-controlled item that must be procured from a specified manufacturer, Rochester Company.
