About this opportunity
Army Materiel Command Contracting Command Redstone Arsenal (ACC-RSA) issued a sole source synopsis for Spirent Software Renewal with a response deadline of September 16, 2026. Keysight Technologies, Inc. is identified as the only source capable of fulfilling the requirement under FAR 5.207(c)(15). The procurement covers 12-month maintenance and support services for two Spirent Communications GSS9000 GPS L1/L2/L5 simulators with SimINERTIAL, each operating from November 1, 2026 through October 31, 2027, in the UH-60M and UH-60V System Integration Laboratories. Market research determined that transitioning to alternative vendors such as CAST Navigation or Safran-Navigation & Timing would require complete hardware replacement of both systems, incurring unrecoverable costs exceeding $1,000,000 with no demonstrated technical compatibility. The justification cites the proprietary and incompatible nature of the installed simulation architecture and exclusive licensing agreements as bases for sole source procurement under FAR 13.106(b)(1)(ii). ACC-RSA will consider capability statements, proposals, or quotations from all responsible sources submitted by September 16, 2026. No solicitation documents currently exist. NAICS 513210 (Software Publishers); PSC DA10.
