About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Contracting Command-Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG) has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to award a sole-source contract to General Dynamics Mission Systems (GDMS) LLC. The contract is specifically for sustainment support services for the Communication-Electronics Command (CECOM) Integrated Logistics Support Center Command, focusing on life cycle management for 11 Configuration Items in the Tactical Network Transport (TNT)-On-The-Move (OTM) system. This Special Notice, posted on May 27, 2025, with a due date of June 11, 2025, outlines the government's rationale for selecting GDMS as the sole contractor. The decision is based on GDMS's exclusive ownership of the technical data package and proprietary expertise required to perform the necessary services. The government has determined that pursuing a competitive bidding process would be prohibitively costly and time-consuming.
The primary objective of this sole-source contract is to provide comprehensive sustainment support for the TNT-OTM system, with a performance period spanning from approximately July 11, 2025, to July 10, 2030. The contract has been justified under FAR 16.505(b)(2)(i)(G), which allows for a non-competitive award under specific circumstances. Contractors should note that this is not a request for competitive quotations, and no solicitation will be issued for this requirement. The contract falls under the NAICS category 811210 for Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance, with a Product Service Code (PSC) of J059 for maintenance and repair of electrical and electronic equipment components. GDMS, located in Taunton, Massachusetts, is the sole eligible contractor due to its unique technical data rights and specialized expertise in the TNT-OTM system.

This contract will provide sustainment support services for the Communication-Electronics Command (CECOM) Integrated Logistics Support Center (ILSC) Command, Control Communications Network (C3N) Directorate, supporting life cycle management for 11 Configuration Items (CIs) in the Tactical Network Transport (TNT)-On-The-Move (OTM) system.
