About this opportunity

The Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Franchise Acquisition Services has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to award a single-source contract to Troll Systems for the procurement of two specific radio and television broadcasting equipment items. The purpose of this announcement is to inform industry of the FAA's decision to utilize single-source contracting procedures for this requirement.

The FAA intends to award a single, firm-fixed price contract to Troll Systems, the original equipment manufacturer for the required antenna controllers and receivers. Due to the necessity for equipment configuration consistency across the agency's ground stations, the FAA has determined that Troll Systems is the sole source that can satisfy this requirement, as the aircraft are now equipped with Troll Linkbox. The Special Notice provides the product details, the rationale for the single-source approach, and the applicable NAICS and PSC codes. All questions regarding this intended procurement must be submitted in writing to the specified contracting specialist by the due date of October 9, 2024.

Notice text

NOTICE OF INTENT TO SINGLE SOURCE – CBP TROLL EQUIP

NO PHONE CALLS PLEASE. ALL QUESTIONS MUST BE IN WRITING AND EMAILED TO THE CONTRACTING SPECIALIST CONTACT INFORMATION BELOW.

In accordance with the FAA Acquisition Management System paragraph 3.2.2.4, the purpose of this announcement is to inform industry of the basis of the FAA's decision to contract with a selected source using single source procedures.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) intends to award a single source, one-time award to purchase the following items:

Item Number     Description                                                                                                   Quantity

00001    PN: DMR8000-BE-A
Diversity Multimedia Receiver and IP Decoder w/ B-Crypt Decryption                1.00

00002    PN: X750-NSIDirCntl-BAS
Remote site/local controller                                                                                   1.00

Rational Basis for Use of Single Source Award Procedures:

Troll Systems is the Original Equipment Manufacturer for the Troll antenna controllers and receivers. Troll has no resellers or distributors. For the AMO Terrestrial Sites to serve their intended purpose, the configuration must be the same across the ground stations in the field. As the aircraft are now equipped with the Troll Linkbox, the optimal receive site configuration (antenna controllers and receivers) must be Troll. There is not another government contract that can satisfy this requirement. Troll does not have a network of distributors and is the sole source for this equipment.

NAICS – 334220 - Radio and Television Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing

Manufacturing - Size Standard – 1,250 Employees

The FAA's current intended procurement strategy is to pursue a single Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract via single source award procedures to the following company:

Troll Systems

24950 Anza Drive

Valencia, CA 91355

SAM UEI: NKHRJR5PMKL3
