NOI to Sole Source for NVG Repair

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), operating under the Department of Justice, has published a Special Notice of Intent to Sole Source a contract for night vision goggle (NVG) repair services. This notice, posted on December 4, 2025, constitutes the only published announcement for this procurement opportunity. The FBI intends to negotiate a one-time, firm fixed price contract exclusively with L3 Harris Technologies, Inc., located in Londonderry, New Hampshire. The procurement falls under NAICS code 811210 (Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance) and PSC code 4940 (Miscellaneous Maintenance and Repair Shop Specialized Equipment). The justification for sole source procurement is based on L3 Harris Technologies' unique capability as both the original manufacturer and sole producer of the specific NVG model requiring repair services.

Interested parties have until 9:00 AM Central Time on January 9, 2026, to submit a capabilities statement or expression of interest exclusively via email to Beancounter Liggins at bmliggins@fbi.gov. The FBI will accept submissions only through email; responses submitted through telephone, facsimile, or other means will not be considered. The government intends to use information received from interested parties solely to determine whether to convert this procurement into a competitive bidding process, though the decision to compete or proceed with sole source negotiation remains at the government's discretion. This notice is not a request for competitive quotations and does not obligate the FBI to pursue competitive procurement. While L3 Harris Technologies is the named contractor for sole source negotiations, the submission window allows other capable contractors to demonstrate their qualifications and potentially influence the procurement approach.
