About this opportunity
The 23d Contracting Squadron at Moody Air Force Base, Georgia has issued a special notice announcing their intention to make a sole source award to L3 Harris, Inc. for an X-Band Kit. The kit consists of specific components including parabolic feeds and a transceiver in a hard case, with designated part numbers for X-Band Feed units and an X-Band Transceiver. This procurement is classified under NAICS code 334220 for Radio and Television Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing and falls under PSC category 5985 for Antennas, Waveguides, and Related Equipment. The notice was posted on August 22, 2025, by Contracting Specialist Aden Luna. The Air Force has determined that L3 Harris is the only vendor capable of providing this specialized equipment, which serves as an add-on to the Panther II VSAT system for the 820 BDG.
The primary purpose of this special notice is to conduct market research and inform potential contractors of the government's intention to proceed with a sole source procurement if no viable alternatives are identified. Contractors have until August 29, 2025 at 11:00 PM Eastern Standard Time to submit inquiries via email to the contracting specialist. The government has already conducted market research efforts including posting sources sought notices on SAM.GOV and contacting GSA, but found no alternative vendors capable of providing the required X-Band Kit. If the Air Force proceeds with the sole source award, a justification and approval document will be completed in accordance with FAR 6.303 and posted to BETA.SAM.gov. The notice explicitly states this is not a request for proposals and does not constitute any government commitment, with responses being used solely to inform acquisition decisions.
