About this opportunity

The Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division at China Lake, California is seeking to procure Handheld Link 16 Radios and related accessories through a sole-source procurement. The specific items required include PRC-161 handheld radios, replacement batteries, battery chargers, and Ethernet cables in defined quantities to support current system operations. This procurement is being conducted on an other than full and open competitive basis; however, interested firms may submit written responses demonstrating their capability to fulfill the requirement. Responses must be submitted to donell.e.duenassims.civ@us.navy.mil no later than five days after the notice publication date and should reference solicitation number N6893626Q5069, including a detailed capability statement that addresses the firm's experience, assets, background, and ability to perform the work while maintaining quality, accuracy, reliability, and schedule requirements. All interested parties must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database prior to submission. The response deadline is January 26, 2026.

This procurement carries no set-aside designation and is currently sole-sourced to L3 Technologies, Inc. Communication Systems - West, located in Salt Lake City, Utah, based on the company's full integration into the existing system and the need to maintain design continuity with any added systems. The procurement involves six PRC-161 handheld radios, twelve replacement batteries, ten battery chargers, and six Ethernet cables. No specific award value or budget range is disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice. While this announcement primarily notifies the market of the government's intent to conduct a sole-source award, it does permit alternative sources to submit capability statements for consideration if they can demonstrate they can perform the work without compromising system quality and continuity.
