# Navy Previews Philadelphia Shipboard Testing Requirement

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Philadelphia Division (NSWCPD) will host a voluntary pre-solicitation conference on **November 12, 2026**, at Building 77L, Room 200, in the Philadelphia Navy Yard, with virtual access also planned. The event will preview an anticipated FY27–32 Navy requirement for external laboratory services to qualify shipboard and submarine HME equipment, including shock, vibration, and EMI/EMC testing. The conference is an opportunity to learn about the requirement and discuss acquisition approaches; attendance is not required to compete for a future solicitation.

- Laboratories and contractors can assess their capabilities for test procedure development, test execution, custom fixtures, and reporting against the anticipated requirement.
- Interested firms can attend in person or virtually and direct advance questions to Brendon L. Clingensmith or Vincent A. Myers at the listed Navy email addresses.
- Because the requirement is anticipated for FY27–32 and no solicitation details or contract value are provided, firms should treat the conference as market research and early acquisition engagement, not as a proposal deadline.
