About this opportunity
The Special Notice from the Department of Homeland Security's Customs and Border Protection announces their intent to award a sole source contract to NAL Research Corporation. The award is for uninterrupted satellite airtime to transmit GPS tracking data from existing NAL Research devices to servers at the Air and Marine Operations Center.
The Notice seeks to provide continuous internet connectivity for a base year and four option years to support GPS tracking capabilities. Contractors have until September 23, 2020 to submit capability statements if they believe they can meet requirements, however only NAL Research can provide the necessary airtime as it is proprietary to their equipment already deployed. The award will be a firm fixed price contract set aside for total small businesses. Eligible contractors must demonstrate an ability to transmit data from NAL Research devices to ensure ongoing law enforcement tracking operations are not interrupted.
