The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) intends to award a sole-source, Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) Delivery Order to Rockwell Collins, Inc. for software integration and modifications supporting the E-2D aircraft's radio and control display systems. The procurement specifically involves updating TSV Suite A and B functionality, modifying software versions for the AVC-4712 and AFD-3210 systems, and interfacing with GEN 5 radio Cryptographic Modernization requirements. The contract will also include updates to existing Software Development Stations for testing purposes. The government is pursuing this acquisition under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), which allows for sole-source procurement when only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on June 5, 2025, with a response deadline of June 20, 2025, though this is not a formal request for proposal.
Rockwell Collins, Inc. is identified as the sole designer, developer, and Original Equipment Manufacturer, making them the exclusive contractor for this opportunity. No specific set-aside designations are applied to this contract, and while no explicit award value is mentioned, the Cost Plus Fixed Fee structure suggests flexibility in pricing. The contract falls under the NAICS category 334511 for Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing, with a Product Service Code of 5826 for Airborne Radio Navigation Equipment. The procurement is specific to the Department of the Navy and will support software updates and integration for military aviation electronics. Interested subcontractors are advised to contact Rockwell Collins, Inc. directly for potential collaboration opportunities.
