Looking for traditional contracting opportunities? Our NAVWAR eCommerce portal is your gateway to announcements for upcoming procurements, contracting opportunities, requests for information and more. This is where we post solicitations using primarily Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR)-based procurement methods. All submissions on the NAVWAR eCommerce platform feed into the Government Point of Entry (GPE) portal, www.sam.gov.

To tap into the innovative spirit of non-traditional defense contractors, NAVWAR partners with the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) and leverages their Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) announcement (HQ0845-20-S-C001) and platform. The CSO provides a streamlined and agile procurement process to rapidly prototype and field cutting-edge commercial technologies. If you're a non-traditional vendor with a game-changing solution, this is the place to find opportunities. Opportunities sought using Other Transaction (OT) authority (10 U.S.C. 4022) steer away from the traditional MIL-SPEC, boutique solutions that our customers have historically required. If you've never done business with the Government, you'll likely prefer this method of procurement.

When the latest technical challenges are not a good fit for the NAVWAR-DIU CSO, they may instead appear on NAVWAR's CSO platform, leveraging NAVWAR's own CSO announcement N00039-25-S-0001. The NAVWAR CSO leverages 10 USC 3458 and 10 USC 4022 authorities to allow NAVWAR with a quick and agile process to acquire capabilities that may be unique to the Navy. Again, if you're a nontraditional defense contractor new to NAVWAR, this might be your second stop after checking out the DIU storefront.
