About this opportunity
The Department of the Army Materiel Command Mission and Installation Contracting Command Fort Drum is soliciting bids for seven quadcopter unmanned aircraft systems with specific performance and security requirements. The primary procurement objective is to obtain quadcopter frames capable of minimum flight distances of one kilometer and minimum flight times of 25 minutes, equipped with XT60 battery connectors. Critical components must not transfer or download data from foreign entities and cannot pose national cybersecurity risks, though National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) compliance is not required. Acceptable devices must either have been previously authorized by the Federal Communications Commission prior to December 22, 2025, or be manufactured in the United States with domestic components comprising at least 65 percent of the total component cost. The solicitation was posted on March 26, 2026, with proposals due by April 2, 2026, providing interested contractors with seven days to submit responses.
This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting competition to small business concerns. The procurement involves seven quadcopter units for delivery to Fort Drum, New York, classified under NAICS Category 336411 (Aircraft Manufacturing) and PSC Category 1550 (Unmanned Aircraft). While the specific contract value is not disclosed in the solicitation notice, the quantity of seven units and the technical specifications requiring either pre-authorized FCC devices or domestically manufactured systems with substantial domestic content provide clear parameters for bid preparation. Contractors should note the compressed timeline between posting and deadline and ensure their proposed equipment meets all stated performance, connectivity, and sourcing requirements before submission.
