About this opportunity
The Department of the Army Georgia Army National Guard published a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice for the procurement of two Small Unmanned Aerial System (sUAS) Vesper Drones from Vantage Robotics, Inc., along with four additional batteries and an upgrade package for current sUAS equipment. The sole source justification is based on strict compliance requirements with DAFMAN 11-501 and 11-502 regulations, and the 165th Air Support Operations Squadron (ASOS) has already received both a commercial off-the-shelf exception to policy and an Airworthiness Safety Release specifically for this Vesper drone model from AFSOC/A3OU. The contract W50S7025PA007 was awarded on July 25, 2025, as a firm fixed-price acquisition falling below the simplified acquisition threshold, though the specific award amount was not disclosed in the notice. The procurement is further supported by approved Mission Training and instructor upgrade training plans that have been developed specifically for the Vesper system in compliance with the required Air Force manuals. The marketplace determination restricts eligible systems to only those approved under the specified DAFMAN requirements, effectively limiting competition to this particular vendor and model.
