Android Team Awareness Kit (ATAK) Enhancements

The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has issued a Special Notice for a sole source procurement targeting Android Team Awareness Kit (ATAK) enhancements. The notice indicates the agency's intent to negotiate directly with Chesapeake Technology International, Corp., located in Prince Frederick, Maryland. The procurement will be conducted using Simplified Acquisition Procedures under FAR Part 13, with a planned firm fixed-price (FFP) purchase order. Published on May 22, 2025, the notice provides an opportunity for potential vendors to submit capability statements demonstrating their ability to meet the government's requirements. The procurement falls under the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code 514330.

Contractors interested in this opportunity must submit electronic capability statements to Robert.A.JonesJr@dea.gov by June 5, 2025, at 10:00 AM Eastern Standard Time. While the notice is primarily focused on a potential sole source procurement with Chesapeake Technology International, the DEA will consider capability statements from other vendors who believe they can meet the government's requirements. However, the agency retains full discretion in determining whether to open the requirement to broader competition. This is not a competitive quotation request, and no Request for Quotation (RFQ) will be made available. Potential vendors should carefully review the notice and prepare comprehensive capability statements that clearly demonstrate their technical expertise and capacity to enhance the Android Team Awareness Kit. The ultimate selection and procurement approach remain at the sole discretion of the DEA.
