About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy's Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), Air Traffic Management Systems Program Office (PMA-213), intends to award a sole-source contract for the Fiscal Year 2027 AN/SPN-50 Shipboard Air Traffic Radar (SATR)(V)3 Internal Research and Development (IRAD) system, with a due date of November 30, 2026. The government intends to negotiate under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, stating that only one responsible source will satisfy agency requirements, and the notice is for informational purposes only and is not a request for competitive proposals.

The IRAD system serves as an Engineering Development Model asset for environmental and qualification testing, and the effort requires contractor support for testing and installation. NAVAIR requires AN/SPN-50 deliveries to remain on schedule for installation on CVN, LHD, and LHA ships, and the production effort requires specialized skills to meet a stringent schedule. The system integrates complex contractor-developed software and hardware with government-developed target-processing algorithms, is specialized for operation with the AN/SYY-1 Display system, and requires characterization in its operational environment.
The notice identifies the Original Equipment Manufacturer as the sole AN/SPN-50 designer, developer, and manufacturer. The Navy did not procure the Technical Data Package that would allow another source to produce the system.
