About this opportunity
The Mission and Installation Contracting Command-Ft. Hood (MICC-Ft. Hood) has issued a Notice of Intent to Award a sole source contract to SAFRAN Defense & Space Inc. for four SPARTE 63TAA320 Power Conditioners. This procurement is being conducted under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) authority and will not be posted as a competitive solicitation on SAM.gov. The contract supports the Army Test & Evaluation Command (ATEC) at White Sands Missile Range, which requires these power conditioners for their antenna network critical to telemetry systems during test missions. The total contract value is $223,500.00 and will utilize fiscal year 2024 Research, Development, Test & Evaluation (RDT&E) funds. The applicable NAICS code is 335999 with a size standard of 600 employees.
The sole source justification is based on SAFRAN's proprietary antenna technology and specialized expertise specific to the missile test range environment, where recurring power instability issues have caused frequent telemetry tracker shutdowns that risk critical data loss during mission hot firings. SAFRAN currently holds an existing maintenance contract (W91151-24-C-0003) and possesses deep understanding of the infrastructure, making them uniquely positioned to provide these power conditioners without introducing operational risks. Market research confirmed that no alternative vendors could provide the necessary services due to the proprietary nature of the antenna software and design rights. Interested parties have until October 2, 2025, to respond to this notice, though the government will not pay for any information received in response to this announcement. The procurement falls under PSC code 6130 for Electronic & Communication Equipment and is structured as a fixed-price purchase order.
