Motorola radios

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime has issued a Request for Quote (RFQ SPMYM425Q0591) for the procurement of 34 Motorola APX6000 UHF R1 Model 2.5 Portable Radios with associated accessories and configuration enhancements. The radios must include multiple advanced features such as P25 programming capabilities, P25 link layer authentication, P25 9600 baud trunking, smartzone operation, AES encryption, digital CAI operation, and impact green housing, along with specific batteries and a multi-unit charger. Offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and provide detailed supply chain traceability documentation for all radio equipment. The solicitation will be evaluated using a low-cost, technically acceptable method, prioritizing cost-effectiveness while ensuring technical compliance. Quote submissions are due by 12:00 PM on June 24, 2025, with delivery required by September 30, 2025.

This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting participation to qualifying small business entities under NAICS code 334290 (Other Communications Equipment Manufacturing). The contract requires delivery of all 34 radio units to DLA Distribution in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, with performance expected to occur within the United States. The solicitation establishes a firm-fixed-price structure with separate line items for the radio equipment and shipping costs. The relatively short performance timeline spans approximately three months from award to delivery completion. No incumbent contractors are specifically identified in the solicitation documentation, suggesting this may be an open competition among eligible small businesses capable of providing Motorola radio equipment and meeting the technical specifications.
