The Federal Aviation Administration's Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center is procuring specialized waveguide spare parts for the Airport Surface Detection Equipment - Model X (ASDE-X) surveillance systems. The solicitation seeks eight specific Easat Radar Systems LTD part numbers including coupler angles, vertical waveguides, and waveguide couplers with various specifications such as heated and non-heated sections.

The contract will be awarded to the lowest-priced, responsible offeror using a firm-fixed-price structure. Proposals must be submitted by email to connie.m.houpt@faa.gov no later than August 14, 2025, at 2:00 PM Central Time, and Amendment A0001 was issued on August 11, 2025, to correct a part number for Contract Line Item 0007.
This solicitation operates under full-and-open competition despite being sole-sourced to Easat, with no set-aside designation applied.
