About this opportunity
The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) under the Department of the Navy has issued a Special Notice regarding its intent to award a sole source contract for an Automatic Wiring Analyzer (AWA) Test Stand to DIT-MCO International LLC. The notice, posted on March 25, 2026, announces the Fleet Readiness Centers (COMFRC) Procurement Group's intention to procure this specialized equipment for the E-2D Platform without competitive bidding. The sole source justification is based on 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, which permit procurement from a single responsible source when no other supplies or services satisfy agency requirements.
The primary objective is to acquire a new AWA Test Stand that includes manufacture, pre-shipment testing, shipping, assembly, start-up, commissioning, and training services. The Fleet Readiness Center Southwest (FRCSW) requires this equipment because DIT-MCO's AWA utilizes proprietary Test Assistance II (TA2) software that is essential for data exchange compatibility with both DIT-MCO and the E-2D Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), as well as for utilizing existing test programs without modification. While this is not a competitive request for quotes, interested contractors may submit a capability statement within fourteen calendar days of publication (by April 8, 2026) for consideration in determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement instead. The Government reserves the right to make the final decision regarding competitive procurement solely at its discretion. The point of contact for this opportunity is Abbey Clements.
