Tracewell HPC-4K Power Supplies (Upper and Lower) VDATS Equipment Block 1

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center has published a Special Notice announcing its intent to award a sole-source contract to Tracewell Technology for HPC-4K Power Supplies. This notice specifically covers both upper and lower power supply units required for VDATS Equipment Block 1 operations at the Electronics Maintenance Group, Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex at Robins Air Force Base, Georgia. The procurement involves specialized power supply equipment with specific part numbers 590-1112-K00-00 Rev G and 590-1113-K00-00 Rev F. The Air Force emphasizes that this is not a request for quotes but rather a formal notification of their procurement intentions. The opportunity is categorized under Electronic Computer Manufacturing (NAICS 334111) and falls within the electrical and electronic properties measuring and testing instruments product service code.

The sole-source justification stems from the proprietary nature of the HPC-4K Power Supply equipment and Tracewell Technology's exclusive authorization restrictions that prohibit third-party vendors from supplying these specific components. The contract requires delivery of 20 total units (10 upper and 10 lower power supply kits) within 12 months of award, shipped FOB Destination to the specified Georgia facility. No contractor installation or training services are required, though a standard one-year manufacturer's warranty must be provided beginning from the shipping date. The procurement must comply with security requirements including NISPOM and OPSEC procedures, supply chain risk management protocols to prevent counterfeit parts, and environmental procurement standards. Payment processing will be conducted through the Wide Area Workflow system via PIEE, and interested parties have until August 14, 2025, to review this notice, though no competitive bidding opportunity exists due to the sole-source nature of the acquisition.
