About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime awarded a sole-source contract to General Dynamics Mission Systems-Canada for the procurement of a Redesigned Hull Networks Box (RHNB) with Container (NSN 6110-01-514-7369, Part Number 57K4140) on June 5, 2026, on a sole-source basis.
The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), only one responsible source. GDMS-C is the original equipment manufacturer with exclusive tooling, equipment, and design knowledge necessary to manufacture the part. Although the government holds the Technical Data Package, the justification establishes it is inadequate for production without access to GDMS-C's proprietary design and procedures. The government estimated that reverse-engineering the item to establish competition would cost approximately $5.285 million and create unacceptable delays of multiple years, rendering such competition economically infeasible. A Source Sought Notice published on SAM.gov on September 24, 2024, yielded no responses. Market research conducted in December 2024 confirmed GDMS-C as the sole source for a military-grade RHNB with Container.
The contract calls for a base quantity of 25 units with a 100 percent option for an additional 25 units, totaling 50 units on a firm-fixed-price basis. The RHNB with Container is used on M1 Abrams Tanks to distribute power, control, and status signals among the hull's engine and transmission control equipment, driver's panels, lights, and personnel environmental controls. The part must comply with extensive testing requirements including nuclear hardness testing, environmental testing, and ballistic shock testing per MIL-STD-810. Acquisition is being conducted under Army Working Capital Funds.
