About this opportunity
The Naval Air Warfare Center, Weapons Division, China Lake, California intends to procure seven GM-LTS controllers and seven hard drive spare units through a sole source procurement from GRID DEFENCE SYSTEMS LIMITED located in Wooburn Green, Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom. These components are configuration-controlled items designated by the U.S. Air Force for the GMLTS system, with no alternate parts permitted. Interested parties must submit capability statements to Andrea Farrell at andrea.m.farrell7.civ@us.navy.mil by October 28, 2025—five days after the notice publication date—referencing solicitation number N6893626Q0002. The capability statement must clearly demonstrate the firm's experience, assets, background, and ability to perform the work while maintaining required standards for quality, accuracy, reliability, and schedule adherence. All respondents must maintain active registrations in the General Services Administration's System for Award Management (SAM) with proper Entity Administrator authorization, and contractors will need Defense Logistics Information Services (DLIS) certification to access any controlled unclassified information associated with this opportunity.
This procurement is designated as a sole source award with no set-aside utilized, and GRID DEFENCE SYSTEMS LIMITED has been identified as the incumbent contractor for these specialized components. The requirement consists of specific quantities—seven controllers and seven hard drives—reflecting spare parts procurement rather than full system acquisition. No specific award value or budget range has been disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice. While this notice does not constitute a request for competitive proposals, the agency has provided a formal opportunity for other entities to challenge the sole source justification within the five-day response window. Interested parties should be aware that processing new or updated SAM registrations with required notarized documentation may require several days, making prompt action essential to meet the response deadline.
