About this opportunity
Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, under Naval Sea Systems Command, issued a sole-source intent notice on August 24, 2026 to procure dispatch recording service and maintenance services and support for data storage equipment and software from Exacom, with a response deadline of August 27, 2026. The Navy reserves the right to proceed with sole-source award under FAR authority; this notice is informational only and does not constitute a solicitation or commitment to contract.
The procurement supports the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard Emergency Dispatch Center and covers a 12-month service period from September 7, 2026 through September 6, 2027. The justification for sole-source procurement rests on three grounds: Exacom proprietary intellectual property rights, including a Dell Server Precision 5820 loaded with Exacom Hindsight Version 4 containing seven years of recorded emergency and law enforcement data readable only on Exacom equipment; Exacom's exclusive licensing as sole manufacturer and authorized distributor of the Hindsight product line; and technical integration with existing phone and radio infrastructure, for which no third-party alternatives provide compatible service and data management. Work is performed at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, Kittery, Maine. NAICS 561621 (Security Systems Services); PSC 7A21 (IT and Telecom—Business Application Software). The contracting officer is Anthony Barker; technical certification is dated May 1, 2026. Interested parties may submit comments during the three-day notice period.
