About this opportunity
The Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division intends to award a sole source contract to Collins Aerospace for range instrumentation products and services, including airborne, ground-based, and surface-based elements, along with data collection, processing, and display capabilities. This procurement encompasses proprietary systems where Collins Aerospace serves as the original equipment manufacturer, with modernization efforts focused on the Tactical Combat Training System (TCTS) II and P6 platforms. The agency justifies the sole source approach under FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii)(B), citing that awarding to another contractor would result in substantial cost duplication that cannot be recovered through competition. While this is not a competitive solicitation, firms believing they can fulfill these requirements may submit capability statements within 15 days of the notice publication date of September 4, 2025, with responses due by September 19, 2025. The formal Request for Proposal will be published on SAM.gov around January 2026, and interested firms must maintain active SAM registration.
This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and specifically identifies Collins Aerospace as both the intended sole source awardee and the original equipment manufacturer of the required systems. The contract scope includes enhancements, upgrades, and modifications to address obsolescence, improve performance, integrate new capabilities, and ensure compliance with evolving standards. The solicitation number is N6893625R0004, and it falls under NAICS code 334511 for search, detection, navigation, guidance, aeronautical, and nautical system and instrument manufacturing. The procurement also encompasses remote ground stations, host range interface equipment, and product test and troubleshooting stations as part of the comprehensive range instrumentation requirements. No specific contract value or timeline for services is provided in this pre-solicitation notice.
