Brand Name Sole Source General Dynamics Mission System URC-300

The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command seeks General Dynamics Mission Systems URC-300 VHF/UHF software-defined transceivers and associated accessories, with quotations due May 7, 2026 and questions due May 6, 2026. This is a 100% Small Business Set-Aside with a brand name competition requirement—only GDMS URC-300 components are in scope, limiting qualification to authorized small business distributors.

Place of performance is San Diego, California. The procurement includes eight line items: four black backpack systems, four rechargeable lithium batteries with SMBus, four commercial-grade dual battery chargers, four DC power cables, four AC/DC power supplies (10W), eight headsets (V4-10796), eight H-250 handsets (V2-10497), and four units of seven-year extended warranty. Delivery is required by September 10, 2026. The NAICS code is 334220, Radio and Television Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing, with a $15 million size standard; PSC is 5821.

The Government emphasizes that URC-300 is a proprietary system with specialized RF architecture enabling multiple transceivers to operate within 6.5 feet without frequency interference—capabilities unavailable from competing tactical man-pack radios. Equipment must integrate with the Government's existing URC-300 family infrastructure including power supplies, remote control units, antennas, and permanently installed RF wiring. Mandatory DoD/FAA certifications and military authorizations are required for National Airspace System and Department of War spectrum compliance.
