T7 Robot Repair

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Test Center has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to award a sole source purchase order to L3Harris Technologies, Inc. for the repair of a T7 Ordnance Disposal Robot. The procurement specifically targets the repair of a non-functional J4 Rotary Module on the robot system. This notice falls under NAICS code 334290 for Other Communications Equipment Manufacturing with a size standard of $34 million, and is classified under PSC code J059 for maintenance and repair of electrical and electronic equipment components. The anticipated contract award is scheduled for July 2025 and will be structured as a firm-fixed price purchase order. The procurement is being justified under 41 United States Code 1901 as a sole source acquisition with an approved Single Source Justification.

The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to inform the contracting community of the Air Force's intent to proceed with a non-competitive award while providing an opportunity for other potential contractors to demonstrate their capabilities for similar future requirements. Interested parties must submit written responses via email to the designated contracting officer, Darren Alvarez, by July 10, 2025. The notice emphasizes that this is not a formal solicitation, and responses should focus on demonstrating the contractor's ability to provide the required T7 robot repair services. The Air Force will use submitted information to assess potential future competitive procurement opportunities for similar equipment maintenance and repair requirements. Contractors responding to this notice should understand that the current procurement will proceed as planned with L3Harris Technologies, but their submissions may position them for consideration in future competitive solicitations for comparable ordnance disposal robot maintenance services.
