This pre-solicitation notice is classified under PSC 5820 (Radio and Television Communication Equipment, Except Airborne) and represents the initial phase of the acquisition process rather than a formal solicitation for bids or proposals. The government is seeking vendor input and market information to inform the development of its procurement approach. Interested parties should note the April 15, 2026 deadline for responses to this Sources Sought Notice, which provides vendors with an opportunity to express capability and interest in this upcoming procurement.

This procurement carries no set-aside designation, meaning it is open to all eligible contractors regardless of business size or ownership classification. The notice does not specify an award value or budget range at this pre-solicitation stage, nor does it identify any incumbent contractors or current service providers. As this is a Sources Sought Notice focused on market research rather than a final solicitation, specific contract quantity requirements and performance timelines have not yet been detailed. Interested vendors should consult the attached government file (36C26026Q0536.pdf) for additional technical specifications and requirements that will inform the eventual procurement strategy for these portable radio systems and their supporting software.
