About this opportunity

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has issued a Special Notice for a sole source purchase order to Motorola, Inc. for access to a statewide radio system that will provide Land Mobile Radio (LMR) intra-interoperable communications with state and local public safety agencies throughout the state of Illinois. The purchase order will be for a period of twelve months.

The purpose of this Special Notice is to enable IRS agents to communicate directly with each other, as well as with other federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies in a secure environment, which is critical for agent safety during investigations. Due to the uniqueness of this requirement, no other radio system is acceptable, and the proposed contract action is for services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b). This service is being solicited and awarded as a commercial item in accordance with FAR Part 12.
