Land Mobile Radio - Subscriber Equipment

The Air Force Installation Contracting Agency established this Master BPA for land mobile radio subscriber equipment on June 23, 2023, with ordering authority through June 22, 2028—providing approximately 1 year 11 months of remaining opportunity. The vehicle carries a $400 million shared ceiling and operates as a multiple-award contract with four prime contractors across 428 task orders totaling $100.7 million in combined potential value, of which $95.4 million (95 percent) is already obligated.

Ewing Electronics, Inc. dominates the vehicle with 244 orders valued at $66.6 million in combined potential value, representing roughly 66 percent of all work. AEG Group Inc. holds the second position with 139 orders worth $30.4 million. L3Harris Technologies, Inc. and Eastern Communications LTD LLC account for smaller shares at $1.9 million and $1.8 million respectively. Ordering momentum accelerated sharply through 2025 (172 orders), then decelerated to 21 orders by April 2026, signaling either a seasonal ordering pattern or capacity constraints on the vehicle.

Task orders procure handheld portable radios, vehicle-mounted and fixed-base radios, base stations, and related accessories—predominantly Motorola APX series equipment across multiple models (APX 6000, APX 8000, APX NEXT) and configurations. Representative recent awards include a $3.4 million Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) radio refresh for Eielson Air Force Base and a $2.3 million Air Force Reserve Command enterprise radio procurement. Typical order values range from $20,000 to $500,000, with performance durations generally 3 to 6 months.

The Department of the Air Force and its direct subordinate commands dominate customer concentration, collectively placing 295 of the 428 orders (69 percent). Air Combat Command, Pacific Air Forces, Global Strike Command, and Air Education and Training Command account for the majority of Air Force internal ordering. Across the portfolio, 23 distinct customer agencies place orders, though concentration data shows the Air Force enterprise drives the vehicle's activity.

Set-aside designations remain light: 79 percent of orders carry no set-aside, 12 percent are Total Small Business, and 2 percent are Competitive 8(a). Most orders employ firm-fixed pricing and completion dates within 2026 or early 2027, reflecting immediate operational refresh requirements. Performance occurs worldwide, with recent orders supporting RAF Fairford and Yokota Air Base in Japan alongside domestic bases.
