About this opportunity

NASA's Shared Services Center is soliciting quotes for 18 Silvus 4200 handheld radios and associated equipment to support the Advanced Capabilities for Emergency Response Operations (ACERO) project, which aims to enhance wildland firefighting capabilities through improved airspace management and situational awareness. The procurement requires specific technical specifications including Mobile Networked MIMO waveform, multiple modulation types (BPSK, QPSK, 16-QAM, 64-QAM), encryption capabilities, and frequency bands ranging from 2025-2500 MHz. This is a brand name requirement restricted to authorized Silvus resellers only, as the current flight service provider already uses Silvus radios and changing brands would result in significant project delays and interoperability issues. Quotes will be evaluated using the lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) methodology, with technical acceptability determined by the ability to meet all solicitation requirements. Technical and contractual questions are accepted until August 14, 2025, with quotes due by August 19, 2025 at 4:00 p.m. CT to Laura Quave via email.

This procurement is set aside exclusively for small businesses under NAICS code 334220, with offerors required to be registered in SAM.gov and demonstrate authorized reseller status for Silvus products. The total estimated cost is $239,369.10 plus shipping, with a 120-day delivery timeline following contract award. Equipment delivery will be made FOB Destination to NASA John H. Glenn Research Center in Cleveland, Ohio, with Net 30 payment terms. The procurement includes not only the 18 handheld radios but also associated accessories such as antennas, batteries, connector cables for ethernet and serial interfaces, and Wi-Fi dongles for programming. NASA has already received approval from the NASA Spectrum Office for this specific radio system, supporting the sole-source brand name justification that emphasizes the critical nature of maintaining interoperability with existing Silvus radio infrastructure.
