Person Mountable Single Place Liferaft
Naval Air Systems Command is issuing a Request for Information to identify qualified sources for commercially available, person-mountable life rafts, with evaluation based on MIL-PRF-81542D requirements. The effort is located at Patuxent River, Maryland, where interested parties must submit capabilities, product samples, and pricing at no cost to the government. Respondents are asked to address specific areas such as compliance testing status, manufacturing maturity, weight, packaging, inflation mechanisms, and lead time. This is a market research effort only and does not commit the government to award a contract. Multiple acceptable commercial items may be approved for local procurement by squadrons.
