About this opportunity
The Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command, Pacific (NAVFAC Pacific) is conducting market research to identify potential sources for a radio fire alarm transmitter that can match the performance and approval requirements of the King-Fisher Company S T A R Software Defined Radio Transmitter. This procurement is for a Fiscal Year 2026 Military Construction Project (P-3001) supporting an ARTS/GPS Operations Support Facility at Diego Garcia. The required equipment must be listed or approved by a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL) recognized by OSHA and must be compatible with the existing King-Fisher Company KFRA-C Emergency Alarm Receiver already installed at the base. Additionally, the transmitter must utilize narrowband radio communication that meets National Telecommunications and Information Administration requirements for federal frequency management. Interested vendors must submit detailed technical data for government evaluation by August 21, 2025, at 6:00 a.m. HST to Ms. Katie Johnson at katie.a.johnson27.civ@us.navy.mil, with incomplete or vague submissions subject to disregard.
This opportunity does not include any set-aside designations and is open to all qualified vendors. The King-Fisher Company appears to be the incumbent contractor, as their equipment is specifically referenced as both the current standard and the existing receiving equipment on base. No specific award value or budget range has been disclosed in this market research notice. The government requires exactly one (1) radio fire alarm transmitter unit for this project, and all submitted information will become U.S. Government property and will not be returned to respondents. This notice serves purely for market research purposes and does not constitute a request for proposals, quotes, or invitation for bid, meaning responses cannot form binding contracts under FAR 15.201(e).
