The U.S. Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) awarded an indefinite delivery contract to Diamond Antenna & Microwave Corporation, a manufacturer of radio frequency (RF) rotary joints and waveguide assemblies, to provide evaluation, repair, and new component manufacturing services for the AN/SPQ-9B radar system. The $2.7 million IDV contract, which runs through 2028, allows NAVSEA to issue task orders for standard repairs, non-standard repairs, supplemental repairs, and testing of the AN/SPQ-9B rotary joint/slip ring assembly. This IDV stems from a limited-source solicitation to two potential vendors, with awards made on a best-value basis considering price, technical requirements, and past performance. Diamond Antenna has a history of delivering specialized rotary components to various federal agencies, including the Department of Defense, NOAA, and FAA. The company currently holds additional IDVs with NAVSEA and other agencies totaling over $11 million for providing similar RF rotary component services and maintenance across multiple radar and communication systems.
