The notice indicates the USCG intends to award a contract directly to Rockwell Collins, Inc., the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of the proprietary radio equipment. This procurement will be conducted under Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) with the justification that Rockwell Collins is the only responsible source capable of providing the required services.

The contract will involve opening, inspecting, and reporting on 13 units of radio receiver-transmitters.

Contractors interested in this opportunity must submit their capabilities and qualifications in writing to the designated contract specialists, Ann M. Leuters and Delton L. Brun, by 1:00 PM ET on May 29, 2025. While all responsible sources may submit information, the government retains sole discretion on whether to compete the procurement on a full and open competition basis. The anticipated contract award date is June 13, 2025, with a performance period of 90 days. The procurement falls under Product Service Code J059 for electrical and electronic equipment maintenance and NAICS code 811210 with a size standard of $34.0M. Contractors should note that this notice is not a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for competitive quotes, and oral communications are not acceptable.
