About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command has issued a Special Notice for the procurement of Radar Airfield and Weather Systems (RAWS) Test Equipment, specifically two VIAVI CX300 Communication Service Monitors for MacDill Air Force Base. This Special Notice is set aside for total small business participation and was posted on June 26, 2025. The 6th Contracting Squadron intends to award a single source contract to Testforce USA, citing that only one responsible source can satisfy the agency requirements under 10 USC 2304(c)(1). The equipment is critical for supporting MacDill AFB's flying mission, serving two Combatant Command Headquarters and an Army helicopter support element. The CX300 units will enable technicians to test, troubleshoot, and maintain essential infrastructure including Air Traffic Control radios, Navigational Aids, and RAWS systems.
The purpose of this Special Notice is to provide market research opportunities for interested contractors who believe they can fulfill the requirement before proceeding with the intended sole source award to Testforce USA. Interested parties must submit responses by July 11, 2025, at 9:00 AM EST to designated Air Force contracting personnel. Contractors must provide detailed capabilities statements including their experience with related work, point of contact information, business status certifications, and business size information based on NAICS code 238390. The procurement includes comprehensive equipment packages with 5-year warranties, calibration certificates, and installation services at MacDill AFB. The government reserves the right to determine whether to conduct a competitive procurement based on the market research responses received, though the current justification emphasizes that Testforce USA possesses exclusive firmware and software modifications that cannot be replicated by alternative suppliers.
