JOFOC C-UAS Special Operations Vehicle RedactedR1.pdf

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition document submitted by the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) to award a five-year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract to NOMAD Global Communication Solutions, Inc. for a Counter-Unmanned Aircraft System (C-UAS).

The acquisition seeks to procure an integrated C-UAS capable of detecting, tracking, identifying, mitigating, and defeating unmanned aircraft systems in real-time on a Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) basis. Upon successful field testing and validation, the government intends to place an order for a minimum of one unit, with NOMAD GCS to deliver the system with all integrated technologies. The contracting activity is the Department of Energy's Office of Secure Transportation (OST) through the Office of Partnership and Acquisition Services, Program Support Acquisition Branch (NA-PAS-315). NOMAD GCS is located in Columbia Falls, Montana, classified under NAICS code 336211 (Motor Vehicle Body Manufacturing) with a size standard of 400 employees. The justification cites CICA Section 303(c)(1) and FAR 6.103-1(b) and (d) as authority for this non-competitive procurement, asserting NOMAD GCS is the sole responsible source capable of providing an integrated command and control C-UAS system with dual-redundancy features and proprietary NOMAD Total Command (NTC) and NeverDown Power Management systems. The document identifies three unique factors: NOMAD's fully integrated mobile platform with specialized power management technology; seamless interoperability with secure networking capabilities; and industry-leading 12-year structural warranty with 24/7/365 technical support. Market research confirmed no alternative sources meet the minimum mission-essential requirements for safety, reliability, and integrated power delivery. The contracting officer will determine cost reasonableness through price analysis, technical analysis, historical government contracts, an Independent Government Cost Estimate (IGCE), and market research. The procurement was dated March 16, 2026, with contract number 89233126DNA000078.
