About this opportunity
The Marine Forces Special Operations Command (MARFORSOC), under the United States Special Operations Command, is seeking pre-built First Person View (FPV) drone systems through a combined synopsis/solicitation. The procurement specifically calls for parts kits to build Chimera FPV airframes in three size classes: 3.5-inch, 5-inch, and 10-inch configurations, with a detailed bill of materials including flight controllers, electronic speed controllers, motors, receivers, video transmitters, cameras, GPS units, and antennas. All components must be NDAA compliant, and vendors may offer optional assembly services as a separate contract line item while providing supply-chain attestation and country of manufacture documentation for each component. The government will evaluate proposals based on Technical capability, Past Performance, Price, and Time of Delivery, with the first three factors combined being significantly more important than delivery timeline. The solicitation deadline has been extended multiple times, with the current due date set for August 27, 2025, at 12:00 PM EDT, and the government intends to award without discussions based solely on initial submissions.
This opportunity is designated as a Total Set Aside for Small Business under NAICS code 336411 (Aircraft Manufacturing) and PSC 1550 (Unmanned Aircraft). The government plans to award a single Firm Fixed Price contract on an all-or-none basis, meaning partial quotes will not be accepted and offerors must submit their best initial proposal. No incumbent contractors or specific award values are mentioned in the solicitation documents, though the procurement involves multiple drone configurations suggesting a potentially substantial equipment acquisition. The contract will be performed in Sneads Ferry, North Carolina, and vendors are encouraged to include technical specifications and data sheets for any proposed alternate components that meet the "or equal" standard. Ground support equipment such as goggles and hand controllers are explicitly excluded from this procurement scope, as are batteries for the drone systems.
