Quick Summary
The Department of the Army, ACC-APG, has issued a Special Notice indicating its intent to award a sole source contract to Motorola Solutions, Inc. for the modernization of the Sierra Army Depot Land Mobile Radio (LMR) System in Herlong, CA.

Organizations believing they can meet this requirement must submit information by April 16, 2026, 4:00 PM EST.
Scope of Work
