About this forecast
The Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Protection is seeking to expand its existing AMO WAVE solution to support an additional 25,000 U.S. Border Patrol users and integrate Motorola's SmartConnect (including SmartProgramming and SmartLocate) into CBP's current conventional ASTRO LMR M3-Core architecture. The project encompasses implementation of a Motorola WAVE system within the National Law Enforcement Communications Center lab network for testing and validation, with integration planned for future Inter-RF Sub-System Interface network connections to the Department of Justice Shared Land Mobile Radio system. The solicitation is estimated to be released on April 2, 2026, with an anticipated award date of April 13, 2026.
The estimated award value ranges from $5,000,000 to $10,000,000 under a Firm Fixed Price contract vehicle utilizing TACCOM II as the acquisition strategy on a sole-source basis to Motorola. The period of performance is estimated to run from April 13, 2026, through April 12, 2027, with work to be performed in Orlando, Florida.

This integration will account for projected upgrades under the Lifecycle Sustainment Services - System Upgrade Agreement (SUA) Contract and interface with future Inter-RF Sub-System Interface (ISSI) network connections to the Department of Justice (DOJ) Shared Land Mobile Radio (SLMR). The project also includes the implementation of a Motorola WAVE system and SmartConnect (including SmartProgramming, and SmartLocate) within the National Law Enforcement Communications Center (NLECC) lab network for testing and validation.
