About this opportunity
The Air Force Lifecycle Management Center (AFLCMC), under the Department of the Air Force, has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to award a sole source contract to Continental Electronics Corporation (CEC) for the development of a transmit subsystem related to the Homeland Defense Over the Horizon Radar (HLD-OTHR) program. This Notice of Contract Action (NOCA) was posted on February 3, 2026, and is authorized under FAR 6.302-1, which allows sole source procurement when only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements. The contracting office is located at Hanscom Air Force Base in Massachusetts, and the government has determined that CEC's unique capabilities and timeline requirements justify bypassing competitive procurement. Interested parties may submit capability statements for government consideration, and the designated ombudsman is Richard Halloran for any inquiries or protests regarding this procurement action.
The objective of this procurement is to develop, install, and test a sub-scale transmit subsystem for the HLD-OTHR program, with a performance period of approximately 22 months. The response deadline for capability statements is March 20, 2026, and interested contractors should direct inquiries to the primary points of contact: Pino D'Orazio at 781-225-5206 or Captain William West at 781-225-0185. While this is designated as a sole source award, the government has indicated that responsible sources may submit capability statements for consideration, providing an opportunity for interested parties to demonstrate their qualifications. The contract falls under NAICS code 334511 (Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing) and is assigned Product or Service Code 5840, with the proposed solicitation number FA220426RB001.
