This procurement will include the fabrication, assembly, integration, manufacturing, testing, delivery and documentation to build Fiber Optic Feedthrough Connector Assemblies, as well as preparation and delivery of technical information to support retrofit activities. The total estimated quantity for Fiber Optic Feedthrough Connector Assemblies is 12 (twelve).

The period of performance is estimated to be twelve 12 months, with anticipated award date of March 2025. This acquisition is being pursued on a sole source basis under the statutory authority of 10 U.S.C.
