GSA Buy 2 Redacted LSJ.pdf

This is a Limited Sources Justification and Approval (J&A) document for a schedule order to procure Ninja Gen2 Systems from Black River Systems Company (BRSC) under a GSA Multiple Award Schedule contract. The procurement is for Radio Frequency (RF) sensing solutions to passively detect, identify, classify, track, and mitigate Group 1-3 Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), with deployments planned at Malstrom AFB, Kirtland AFB, Barksdale AFB, and Eareckson Air Station. The order includes various equipment such as Ninja Gen2 Systems, ES Kits, Ruggedized Laptops, Site Surveys, Installation Kits, and Lightning Protection Kits, with a delivery requirement of 15 months after award.

The justification for limiting sources is based on BRSC's unique capabilities, including being the sole provider of Ninja systems approved for USAF use. BRSC originally developed the Ninja capability through a 2019 SBIR contract with Air Force Research Lab, with technical data and software code protected until May 2028. The document emphasizes that no alternative systems can fulfill the government's requirements, and BRSC is the only GSA schedule holder capable of providing these highly specialized UAS electronic warfare capabilities. The program office conducted market research via an RFI from July to August 2024, with BRSC being the only respondent, and plans to post an RFQ on GSA eBuy.
