About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Robins Air Force Base issued a sole source justification for contract FA855525C0001, awarded to L3Harris Technologies Integrated Systems L.P. on February 27, 2026. The contract provides continued sustainment services for the Integrated Broadcast Service (IBS) Common Interactive Broadcast Uplink Site (IBS-CUS), including on-site field service representative support, system support sustainment, program management, technical support, and engineering support. The justification for sole source procurement was based on unusual and compelling urgency under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(2), with L3Harris determined to be the only vendor capable of providing the necessary support due to the complex, integrated nature of the system requiring intimate knowledge of unique system requirements, hardware, and software baselines. The bridge action was awarded on a Cost Plus Fixed Fee basis utilizing Operation and Maintenance funds, with a two-week performance period from March 1 through March 14, 2026. Market research conducted from December 2 through December 20, 2024, confirmed L3Harris as the sole responsible source for engineering services under NAICS Code 541330, and the government plans to pursue full and open competition for the subsequent follow-on contract.
