About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command is issuing a sole source Request for Quotation (RFQ) for specialized radio equipment and components manufactured by Persistent Systems LLC. The procurement includes 13 line items of embedded module systems, RF modules, Wave Relay MPU5 units with batteries, GPS antennas, S-band antennas, lithium ion batteries, data cables, ethernet cables, dual PTT systems, personal transport units, and power supplies. Persistent Systems is being awarded sole source status as the Original Equipment Manufacturer and sole U.S. distributor of these items, which are required as replacement components for existing government-owned systems. Award will be based on best value to the government considering price, delivery, quality, and past performance evaluated through the Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS). Interested vendors must submit quotations by the April 8, 2026 deadline and include supporting documentation consisting of a Capabilities Statement, proof of past performance for similar work, and a CAGE code.
This solicitation contains no set-aside designations and is being issued directly to Persistent Systems LLC (CAGE 4YBU2), located in New York, NY, based on their exclusive capability to supply compatible replacement components. The estimated contract value exceeds $350,000 but remains under $9 million, with specific quantities ranging from 2 to 25 units depending on the item type. The justification for sole source award emphasizes that alternative suppliers would create compatibility and interface risks with existing hardware, potentially resulting in equipment damage and performance degradation. Work will be performed in Panama City, Florida, with operating hours restricted to Monday through Friday from 0830 to 1500 local time at NSWC-PCD and/or NEDU facilities. Inquiries regarding this solicitation should be directed to Contract Specialist Jamell Kilgore at jamell.l.kilgore.civ@us.navy.mil.
