About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime awarded contract SPRDL1-26-C-0118 to Honeywell International Inc. on a sole-source basis for Inertial Navigation Units (INUs, National Stock Number 6605-01-522-1649, part number HG9740AJ3) on August 21, 2026.
The INU is a self-contained navigation device used in the M95 Mortar Fire Control System that provides acceleration, velocity, and position data using motion and rotation sensors. The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, only one responsible source, on the basis that Honeywell owns the proprietary design for the INU. The Government lacks pertinent technical data, intellectual property rights, and testing equipment necessary for competitive re-procurement. Market research, including a Sources Sought notice posted to SAM.gov for 14 days and an internet search conducted July 7, 2025, identified no similar alternative sources. The Mortar Modernization Program previously demonstrated industry capability to develop pointing devices with INUs conforming to performance specifications, but that initiative was not funded for sustainment and would not generate significant cost savings.
The contract includes a base quantity of 43 units with a 100% option for an additional 43 units, totaling 86 units. Funding is from Army Working Capital Funds. The J&A was approved September 25, 2025, by the Competition Advocate at the DLA level.
