About this IDV
The Federal Aviation Administration Headquarters awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract to DB Systems, Inc., a woman-owned small business manufacturer, for $14.5 million on July 22, 2025, to procure 900E Tactical Air Navigation (TACAN) Antenna Systems and implementation services through July 22, 2027. The FAA determined that DB Systems' 900E TACAN Antenna is the only system approved for nationwide use that remains in production, justifying single-source award to address critical operational shortfalls in legacy TACAN infrastructure across the National Airspace System.
Performance is located in Hurricane, Utah. The originating solicitation, posted as a Special Notice on June 17, 2025, sought approximately 38 TACAN Antenna 900E systems for critical operational sites, including support spare systems and installation services, with related implementation and installation support. DB Systems independently designs, manufactures, and patents the 900E systems with no authorized resellers.
Period of performance runs from the award date (July 22, 2025) through July 22, 2027, with a contract ceiling of $14.5 million.
Since award, the FAA has issued five delivery orders under this IDIQ totaling approximately $13.5 million: Delivery Order 1 ($8.6 million for 900E TACAN antennas and associated parts, awarded July 24, 2025); Delivery Order 4 ($1.84 million for antennas and parts, awarded January 13, 2026); Task Order 1 ($2.5 million for program management, systems configuration and engineering, and logistics support services, awarded August 18, 2025); Task Order 2 ($118,822.93 for TACAN indoor and outdoor storage, awarded January 29, 2026); and a training delivery order ($140,498.01 for diagnostics and line replaceable unit replacement training at the contractor's factory, awarded January 22, 2026). All task orders extend through July 22, 2028, with performance at DB Systems' Hurricane, Utah facility.
