About this file
This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (Sole Source) document for the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) to procure a 5G hardware and software solution from Valid8. The procurement includes a Valid8 M5 hardware system with proprietary 5G NR gNodeB, core network, and UE emulation software, consisting of multiple components such as sw-protocol/engine-base licenses, 5G licenses, mobile emulators, hardware components, and antenna systems. The total package includes one year of software updates/support and configuration & setup services.
The sole source justification is based on Valid8 being the exclusive manufacturer and authorized distributor of this specialized hardware system, which is critical for NPS instructors to demonstrate 5G NR network operations and allow students to research network vulnerabilities. The procurement is valued for the period 09/01/2025 to 09/01/2025, with the solicitation number 1301267277 and control number 2025000826.
