Quick Summary
The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) intends to award a firm-fixed price sole source Purchase Order to the Alaska Department of Public Safety for Antenna Sites services. This acquisition is being pursued on a sole source basis, exempt from full and open competition, as justified under 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1). While not a request for proposal, the DEA will consider capability statements received by March 31, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. EST.
Scope of Work
The DEA requires access rights to establish and maintain antenna sites across the United States, Puerto Rico, and outlying areas to support law enforcement activities and ensure effective communications. These services involve securing specific locations for optimal antenna coverage and minimal interference.

Evaluation
This requirement is being pursued as a sole source acquisition, as the required rights and services for each antenna site are deemed available from only one responsible source. The Government's determination not to open the requirement to competition is at its sole discretion. Information received from capability statements will be considered solely for determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
Additional Notes
Field technical personnel conduct surveys to identify suitable antenna site locations. Competitive procedures are considered technologically impracticable, inefficient, and cost-prohibitive for these specific antenna site acquisitions due to unique location requirements. No other sources have expressed written interest in these requirements as of the justification document's creation. Capability statements should be submitted electronically to Ms. Angel Barkley.
