Quick Summary
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation at Philadelphia has issued a notice of intent to solicit and negotiate a sole-source contract for Receiver-Transmitters (NSN 7R-5841-016691341-CB). The government intends to acquire 15 units under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, as the required technical data and rights are not currently available to support a competitive procurement. Responses are due by April 14, 2026.
Scope of Work
The requirement is for the delivery of 15 units of Receiver-Transmitters (Ref Nr 300A380-4). These components fall under the Airborne Radar Equipment category.
Key technical constraints include:
- Acquisition is restricted to sources specified on source control or selected item drawings per DoD-STD-100.
