About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Peterson Air Force Base is seeking contractors to modify, install, integrate, and test new Beam Steering Unit (BSU) cabinets across three unique radar sites. The primary objectives of this procurement are to resolve obsolescence issues, improve microelectronics reliability, maintainability, and availability, with specific testing to be conducted at the Peterson Space Force Base System Integration Laboratory (SIL). The contract opportunity, classified under NAICS Category 334511 for Search, Detection, Navigation, and Guidance System Manufacturing, involves updating existing BSU cabinets and integrating new configurations. Potential contractors will be evaluated based on their technical capabilities, experience with similar complex radar system modifications, and ability to meet stringent military specifications. The pre-solicitation was posted on March 27, 2025, with initial questions and responses due by April 11, 2025, indicating a relatively tight timeline for potential bidders to prepare their submissions.
There are no specific set-aside designations for this contract opportunity, which suggests the procurement is open to a wide range of qualified contractors. While the exact award value is not specified in the pre-solicitation notice, the scope involves modifications at three distinct radar sites, implying a potentially significant contract value. The project will require detailed technical expertise in radar system integration, with a focus on microelectronics upgrades and system reliability improvements. The work involves modifying cabinets, conducting comprehensive testing, and ensuring compatibility across multiple site configurations. The procurement's classification under PSC Category 5840 for Radar Equipment further underscores the technical complexity and specialized nature of the required services, suggesting that only contractors with advanced radar systems engineering capabilities will be competitive.
