Skyfront Perimeter 8+ Blanket Purchase Agreement

The Department of the Interior (DOI), through its Interior Business Center's Acquisition Services Directorate, has issued a Special Notice regarding a proposed sole source Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for the Skyfront Perimeter 8+ Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS). The notice pertains to procuring the Skyfront Perimeter 8+ drone and associated equipment for the DOI Office of Aviation Services (OAS). This special notice was posted on April 25, 2025, with a response deadline of May 2, 2025. The UAS in question is specifically valued for its extended flight endurance of over five hours, which allows for broader area coverage without frequent landings or refueling. The procurement aims to support DOI operational requirements and complies with various federal acquisition regulations and executive orders.

Contractors interested in this opportunity must submit detailed information about their products and services directly to Contracting Officer Stephanie Boles at stephanie_boles@ibc.doi.gov by May 2, 2025. While this is not a competitive solicitation, the government will evaluate any received responses to determine procurement approach. If no responses are submitted, the DOI will proceed with a sole source negotiation and award directly to Skyfront Corp. The Skyfront Perimeter 8+ UAS meets specific compliance requirements, including FAR 52.240-1 and several executive orders related to unmanned aircraft systems. The BPA will cover not just the primary UAS, but also potential future integrations including payloads, radios, batteries, chargers, ground control stations, tablets, and controllers. Interested firms should note that the government retains full discretion in determining whether to compete the proposed procurement based on submitted responses.
