Remote Minehunting (RMH) Module

The Navy’s Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) is consolidating all Remote Minehunting (RMH) Module requirements—including production of the towed body (TB), Payload Delivery System (PDS), supporting equipment, software, engineering support, and spares—into a single full‑and‑open competition contract (Solicitation N0002425R6304). The award, planned for FY 2026, will cover a five‑year supply and support effort valued under NAICS 334511. The consolidation replaces three separate sole‑source contracts and is intended to reduce integration costs, simplify interface management, and increase small‑business participation by allowing primes and subcontractors to compete openly, with mandatory small‑business subcontracting plans. Market research (RFI/SSN posted Jan 2025, updated Feb 2025; RMH Industry Day 25 June 2024 with 23 attendees) confirmed that multiple responsible sources exist, but the FAR 19.502‑2(a) small‑business set‑aside threshold was not met, prompting the Contracting Officer to pursue unrestricted competition. The Navy will retain system‑integrator responsibilities and will fund a System Integration Laboratory (SIL) to ensure configuration control, while the consolidated contract is expected to deliver integration efficiencies and broaden the pool of qualified offerors.
