About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Test Center has awarded contract FA910123DB002 to Teledyne FLIR on a sole-source basis for infrared imaging equipment, including forward-looking infrared (FLIR) cameras, lenses, and related components, on September 3, 2026.

The justification, issued under FAR 6.302-1 (only one responsible source), cites technical necessity and integration requirements as the basis for the non-competitive award. The Government's existing system is built upon an established FLIR architecture; procuring alternative brand equipment would result in incompatibilities with proprietary command and control software, integration failures, and substantial personnel retraining costs. Market research confirms that while other vendors manufacture similar equipment, only Teledyne FLIR provides the specific components required for full technical compatibility. The amendment expands the scope of the original brand-name justification by adding equipment upgrades to the cumulative program ceiling to support architectural requirements and fulfill strict imaging requirements under specified test conditions. The contracting officer, Erica A. Anglin, determined the anticipated cost is fair and reasonable under FAR 12.204(a), with simplified procedures applied per FAR 12.201-1. Statutory authority is 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1). Place of performance is Arnold Air Force Base, Tennessee. Future competitive opportunities will be assessed as industry advancements and non-proprietary solutions become available.
