What the government is buying
The Department of the Navy's Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) Weapons Systems Support Philadelphia is seeking a Control Display Unit (CDU) for military applications, identified by National Item Identification Number (NIIN) 016232556. CDUs are integrated electronic display and control systems used in military platforms—typically aircraft, naval vessels, or ground vehicles—to provide operators with situational awareness, system status, and interface controls for mission-critical equipment. These units combine display screens with input mechanisms and processing capabilities to manage navigation, communications, weapons, or platform subsystems.

Who can bid
This solicitation is open to all responsible offerors—no small business set-aside applies. Any qualified business, regardless of size, may compete.
The NAICS 334511 (Navigational, Measuring, Electromedical, and Control Instruments Manufacturing) generally corresponds to small business size standards. Firms in this industry should verify their size status at SAM.gov. If your business qualifies as small, this may still factor into past performance evaluations or subcontracting plans, though it does not create a bidding preference here.
Eligible bidders should have:
- Experience manufacturing or supplying military-grade electronic display/control systems
- Capacity to meet defense quality standards (likely including MIL-STD requirements)
- CurrentSAM.gov registration and active CAGE code
- Ability to deliver to Navy supply chains, potentially including FOB destination terms
How to put together a competitive bid
For military avionics and display equipment, competitiveness depends on technical precision and supply chain reliability:
Technical response: Address the exact NIIN and nomenclature specification. CDUs are highly specialized—see the solicitation for exact form, fit, and function requirements, environmental qualifications, and interface standards. Expect demands for electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, night vision compatibility, and ruggedized construction.
Quality certifications: NAVSUP WSS typically requires compliance with military specifications and traceability standards. Verify whether AS9100, ISO 9001, or specific naval certifications are required.
Pricing strategy: Research historical pricing for this NIIN through DLA History databases or FPDS. Military electronics often involve significant non-recurring engineering; structure your proposal to clearly separate recurring and non-recurring costs if permitted.
Past performance: Highlight contracts for similar CDUs, integrated displays, or military avionics. Include DLAIS ratings or CPARS reports from relevant contracts.
Delivery and packaging: Military shipping requires specific packaging and marking per MIL-STD-129 or 2073. Confirm delivery requirements in the solicitation.
