About this award

Written by GovTribe AI ·

Naval Information Warfare Systems Command awarded an Other Transaction Agreement to Continental Electronics Corp for $51.95 million on July 20, 2026, to develop and deliver high-power transmission equipment (HPTE) for the Fixed Submarine Broadcast System (FSBS), with ultimate completion by December 20, 2029. This OTA sits outside the FAR and operates under 10 U.S.C. § 3458 authority.

The effort originated from a Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) solicitation posted September 30, 2025, seeking commercial solutions to replace four disparate tube-type VLF high-power transmission systems currently supporting shore-based FSBS operations. The Navy required high-reliability systems capable of continuous 24/7 operations, enabling global coverage from existing FSBS transmission sites using current waveforms, with implementation requiring minimal site downtime.

Performance occurs in Richardson, Texas. Continental Electronics, a Dallas-based manufacturer of radio frequency transmission equipment and wireless communications products, serves as prime contractor with no subcontractors named in this OTA. The vendor holds extensive prior naval work, including amplifier modules for the AN/FRT-31 VLF transmitter and Cutler IPA modules through the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command (21 awards, $15.3 million combined potential value).

Continental Electronics operates as an unrestricted prime contractor on full-and-open federal procurements with no set-aside designations, with principal NAICS registrations in Radio and Television Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing and leading PSCs in Miscellaneous Communication Equipment and Coils and Transformers.
