About this opportunity
The Portsmouth Naval Shipyard published a Special Notice of its intent to sole source a contract to Kingfisher Company, Inc. The shipyard requires a radio propagation survey to establish technical requirements and system restrictions for proposed wireless pull station technology.
The survey will determine the propagation characteristics to support the design of a wireless pull station system. Interested parties were notified but the contract will be awarded non-competitively to Kingfisher due to its proprietary equipment and infrastructure already implemented widely across naval shipyards. The justification document seeks approvals for the limited competition by October 2023, with performance from November 2023 to February 2024. Only Kingfisher is eligible based on its responsiveness to requirements without compromising quality, accuracy or reliability of the specialized survey services.
