About this opportunity

The Marine Corps Tactical Systems Support Activity (MCTSSA) intends to procure Spirent test equipment and associated services in Fiscal Year 2025 to ensure the performance and reliability of High-Speed Ethernet (HSE) networks within the Marine Corps. The procurement will focus on acquiring equipment that enables rigorous end-to-end testing, advanced automation, and validation of network bandwidth, efficiency, and reliability against industry standards including RFC-2544 for throughput, jitter, and latency testing, RFC-3918 for multicast throughput, and DSCP for Quality of Service validation. These Spirent tools are integral to the Marine Corps Conformance Architecture and provide a comprehensive framework for network assessments and evaluations. The government is conducting market research as required by FAR Part 10 to determine whether qualified resellers exist, establish the appropriate NAICS classification, and identify small business availability. The pre-solicitation notice has a due date of July 23, 2025, with responses required within nine days of the July 14, 2025 posting date.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and is classified under NAICS code 811210 for Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance. The government has not identified any current incumbents or contractors in the available documentation, though the market research process is intended to identify qualified resellers and potential small business participants. No specific award values, budget ranges, or quantities of equipment have been disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice. The procurement timeline is limited to Fiscal Year 2025, with the government file reference M68909-25-RFPREQ-MCTSSA-0136 RFI M68909-25-I-7717.pdf providing additional details for interested parties. The PSC code J059 indicates this falls under maintenance, repair, and rebuild of electrical and electronic equipment components, aligning with the technical nature of the Spirent testing equipment requirements.

Synopsis:

The Marine Corps Tactical Systems Support Activity (MCTSSA) intends to procure Spirent test equipment and associated services in Fiscal Year 2025. This equipment is critical for ensuring the performance and reliability of High-Speed Ethernet (HSE) networks within the Marine Corps.

MCTSSA utilizes Spirent solutions to validate network bandwidth, efficiency, and reliability through rigorous end-to-end testing and advanced test automation, essential for seamless deployments and optimal network performance. These Spirent tools are integral to the Marine Corps Conformance Architecture, providing a comprehensive framework for network assessments, evaluations, and tests. They facilitate testing based on industry standards such as RFC-2544 (throughput, jitter, latency), RFC-3918 (multicast throughput), and DSCP for Quality of Service (QoS) validation.

FAR Part 10 requires market research prior to development of new requirements for an acquisition. The results of the Government’s market research will be used to determine whether qualified resellers exist, the appropriate NAICS for the software and whether small businesses are available to meet the Government’s requirement.
