About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime awarded a sole-source firm-fixed-price contract to DRS LLC (CAGE 24290) for the Circuit Card Assembly Relay Board, NSN 5998-01-575-3005, part number 12496463, on August 11, 2026. The contract value is not disclosed in the redacted justification.
The award is justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), implemented by FAR 6.302-1 (only one responsible source), citing DRS's unique technical expertise and proven manufacturing capabilities for this critical component of the Digital Vehicle Distribution Box used on the Bradley Family of Vehicles. The Government's Technical Data Package is incomplete and references DRS proprietary documents and software; the Government does not possess proprietary rights to the documents required to produce a competitive package. Reverse engineering has been identified as the only viable path to increase future competition, with an estimated cost of $4.85 million covering requirement development and hardware design ($2 million), reliability assessment and monitoring vehicle testing on three vehicles ($2.25 million), and development and validation of technical data ($600,000).
The base contract calls for 34 units with an option quantity of 34 units, totaling 68 units, funded from Army Working Capital Funds. Performance is at the Integrated Logistics Support Center Detroit Arsenal through the Defense Logistics Agency Land Warren. A Sources Sought Notice posted to SAM.gov on May 23, 2025, generated interest from three additional contractors—Artemis Electronics (women-owned small business), BHPE LLC (service-disabled veteran-owned small business), and IPS Assembly (small business)—though none completed the Source Approval Process documentation. Prior contracts were awarded to DRS Network & Imaging in 2020 and 2022 under the same authority.
