About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command has issued a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice for ASE modulators involving troubleshooting, repair, upgrade, investigation, and performance improvement services for spare assemblies supporting Microwave Tube (MWT) test sets. The contract (N0016425DWP08) was awarded to Applied Systems Engineering, Inc. (ASE) of Benbrook, Texas on September 22, 2025, utilizing FAR 6.302-1 (One Responsible Source) as statutory authority. The sole source justification is based on ASE's proprietary design of the Model 177 High Voltage Power Supply/Traveling Wave Tube Grid Modulators, the government's substantial previous investment of $1.3 million in ASE equipment, and the potential for significant delays and increased costs if alternative vendors were pursued. The procurement covers material spare and repair parts for AEGIS AN/SPY-1 Radar Test Sets with an estimated total contract value of $2 million over a five-year period from FY24 to FY29. Market research conducted through a Sources Sought notice in February 2023 received no responses, further supporting ASE as the only viable source for these critical components used in Teledyne TWT amplifiers and Crossed-Field Amplifiers.
