About this opportunity
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Special Operations Group awarded a $7,500,000 sole-source contract to L3 Technologies, Inc. for the procurement of 100 Ground Panoramic Night Vision Goggles - Fused (GPNVG-F) at a unit cost of $75,000 each. The procurement was justified under FAR 6.302-1 because L3 Technologies is the only vendor capable of providing night vision goggles that meet CBP's highly specialized requirements, including panoramic vision with quad tubes, integrated thermal fusion overlay, high resolution rugged design, and white phosphorus tubes with a minimum FOM rating of 2376. These advanced night vision systems are essential for enhancing operational effectiveness and situational awareness for CBP's Border Patrol National Tactical Team (BORTAC) across various mission sets including homeland security, counterterrorism, drug interdiction, and law enforcement operations. The contract was awarded on September 29, 2025, with funding provided through operations and support funds for 2025. Market research confirmed that competing products failed to meet the technical and operational requirements, supporting the determination that only L3 Technologies could satisfy the agency's critical needs for this specialized equipment.
