About this opportunity

The 355th Security Forces Squadron at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base is seeking to procure two Skydio X10D All-Environment Drone Kits through this Request for Quotation. The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command is the contracting agency for this specialized unmanned aircraft system procurement. Quotes are restricted to Authorized Skydio resellers and vendors only, as the government has issued a single source justification based on specific operational requirements including zero-light flight capability, full autonomy, obstacle avoidance, thermal imaging sensors, and NVIDIA Pascal GPU for AI capabilities. The contract will be awarded on a firm-fixed price basis to the lowest-priced, technically acceptable quoter using two evaluation factors: technical capability to meet government requirements and price. All questions must be submitted by June 26, 2025 at 12:00 PM Eastern Time, with quotes due by July 1, 2025 at 12:00 PM Eastern Time.

This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS code 336411 (Aircraft Manufacturing) with a size standard of 1,500 employees. No incumbent contractors are identified in the solicitation materials, as this appears to be a new requirement for the Defense Innovation Unit evaluation program. While no specific contract value is disclosed, the procurement involves exactly two drone units with performance occurring at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Arizona. The Skydio X10D systems must be vetted by the Defense Innovation Unit and included on the Blue sUAS Cleared List, reflecting compliance with the FY20 NDAA American Security Drone Act requirements. The single source justification indicates that future procurements will seek competition among NDAA and DIU compliant vendors, suggesting this may be an initial acquisition for evaluation purposes.
