About this award

Air Mobility Command awarded a $5.18M firm fixed-price purchase order to Persistent Systems LLC on September 22, 2023, for the supply of MPU5 (Man Portable Unit 5) radio kits and required peripherals to support contingency response group operations at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst in New Jersey. The contract extends the period of performance for an existing MPU5 supply contract and requires delivery of smart handheld radios featuring self-healing mesh network capabilities with integrated voice and data transmission, Android Team Awareness Kit integration, and spectrum diversity support. The ultimate completion date is August 1, 2024, with no small business set-aside designation applied. The equipment will be delivered to the 621st and 821st Contingency Response Groups within 120 days of award.

Persistent Systems LLC, a New York-based global communications technology company specializing in advanced mobile ad hoc networking (MANET) systems, was selected as the sole source contractor based on the unique capabilities of its proprietary Wave Relay platform and MPU5 radio systems. The company maintains extensive experience with Air Force and Air Mobility Command requirements through previous prime contract awards, including a $41.8M ICBM Wave Relay Tactical Assault Kit (WARTAK) sustainment contract awarded in September 2024. This purchase order represents part of Air Mobility Command's broader tactical networking modernization efforts to equip rapid-response forces with resilient communications capabilities in contested or infrastructure-limited environments.
