Quick Summary

The Department of the Army (DEPT OF DEFENSE), specifically W6QM MICC-FDO FT HOOD, has issued a Justification Review Document for a sole source award to TLC Solutions, Inc. for Deployable Integrated Telecommunication Test Range (DITTR) services. This noncompetitive, firm-fixed-price (FFP) contract, estimated at $2 million, covers warranty, maintenance, license agreements, and support for DITTR equipment at Fort Huachuca, AZ. The services are critical for ongoing operational test activities for Army and DoD programs.

Scope of Work

This requirement includes:

  • Preventive hardware and software maintenance for DITTR equipment.
  • License agreements and warranty support for DITTR equipment.
  • Technical assistance, remote diagnostics, and 24x7 support for critical system faults.

Contract Details

  • Type: Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) contract.
  • Estimated Value: $2 million.
  • Period of Performance: A base period from February 19, 2026, to February 18, 2027, with options extending through August 2031.
  • Funding: Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT&E) funds.
  • Authority: Simplified acquisition procedures for Commercial Products and Commercial Services, Title 41 U.S.C. 1901 as implemented by FAR 12.201-1.

Justification for Sole Source

The award is justified as sole source to TLC Solutions, Inc. because they are the original designer and manufacturer of the DITTR equipment and hold all proprietary rights. Market research, including a sources sought notice on SAM.gov, yielded no other interested or capable vendors. TLC Solutions, Inc. is a small business.

Future Competition

The government intends to conduct further market research to identify competitive sources for future DITTR requirements. Strategies to increase competition include employing a tiered data rights strategy and leveraging government expertise to reduce contractor costs.
