NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (WSS) Mechanicsburg is procuring Shielded Mild Detonating Cords (SMDC), models MS81 through MS88. These items are classified as Critical Safety Items (CSI) for aircraft egress systems and contain explosive materials. The procurement is restricted to Rockwell Collins Inc. and Pacific Scientific. Requirements include a mandatory safety survey, configuration control, and Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) procedures. Testing protocols involve both First Article Testing (FAT) and Lot Acceptance Testing (LAT). The solicitation includes a base quantity for multiple variants with an option for up to 100% additional units. Following three amendments, the final proposal deadline is June 18, 2026. The solicitation package consists of the base SF-33, three amendments, and a Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL). The base document defines the technical framework, including configuration management and testing protocols like FAT and LAT. Amendments have primarily extended the response deadline.
