About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Test Center at Holloman Air Force Base, New Mexico has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to sole source a contract to RADA Technologies, LLC (also referenced as DRS RADA) for engineering support and training services. The notice pertains to on-site technical support for two RPS-42 radar systems used by the 704th Test Group's Directed Energy Weapon systems. This procurement falls under NAICS code 811210 for Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance, with a small business size standard of $34 million, though it will be awarded to a large business. The anticipated contract award date is August 6, 2025, and the government has determined that RADA is the only vendor capable of meeting the technical specifications. The procurement is structured as a firm-fixed price purchase order for specialized radar system support services.
The primary objective of this sole source procurement is to obtain comprehensive technical support for RPS-42 radar systems, including software updates, functional checkouts, performance verification, calibrations, and verification of simultaneous operation capabilities. The contractor will provide five days of on-site engineering support along with extensive training on system setup, configuration, troubleshooting, and operational procedures, plus delivery of a Command and Control Software License. The government has justified the sole source approach based on RADA's status as the Original Equipment Manufacturer with unique intellectual property rights and specialized expertise in these radar systems. Interested parties may submit capability statements, bids, proposals, or quotations electronically to the Contracting Officer or Contract Specialist by 1:00 PM MDT on July 22, 2025, though this is not structured as a competitive solicitation. The government indicates it will continue monitoring the market for potential competitive opportunities in the future while noting that only RADA currently possesses the proprietary knowledge and operational history necessary to support these specialized radar systems.
