TX Antenna's

The Department of Commerce Office of the Secretary, through the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA), is soliciting quotes for the procurement of four solid machined antennas to support the Institute for Telecommunication Sciences' propagation measurements and modeling activities. The antennas must operate within the 10GHz to 18GHz frequency range and meet specific technical specifications including vertical linear polarization, tolerance for above 50W continuous input power, minimum 8-degree horizontal and vertical beamwidths, and VSWR less than 2:1. The procurement also includes four mounting options and four radomes, with a preference for representative antenna pattern data and calibration information. The government will evaluate offers based on both technical capability and price, awarding a Firm-Fixed-Price Purchase Order to the lowest-price technically acceptable offer. Quotes are due August 1, 2025 at 2:00 PM ET and must be submitted electronically to Procurement Specialist Erika Crawford with a 5-page technical quotation limit.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside under NAICS code 334419 (Other Electronic Component Manufacturing). The solicitation does not identify any current incumbents or contractors for this requirement. While no specific budget range is provided, the government is seeking four complete antenna systems with delivery required by November 31, 2025, or within 15 weeks after receipt of order. The place of performance is Boulder, Colorado 80305, where the Institute for Telecommunication Sciences conducts its RF propagation research and model validation activities. Submitted quotes will remain valid for 120 calendar days following the submission deadline.
