The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command awarded a firm-fixed-price purchase order to Diamond Antenna & Microwave Corporation, a manufacturer of microwave components, for the delivery of 14 directional couplers. The contract has a potential value of $179,970.00 and a completion date of January 10, 2020. The original solicitation was a pre-solicitation notice that indicated the government was unable to purchase the required data or rights to enable competition, and that the part was considered uneconomical to reverse engineer. The notice allowed for interested parties to identify their capability to fulfill the requirement within 45 days. This award to Diamond Antenna appears to be a sole-source contract, as the company has specialized technical capabilities and is a trusted supplier of rotary couplers, slip rings, and waveguide assemblies for military radar, communications, and electronic systems.
