Intent to Sole Source for Mojave Repeater

Montana State University's Miltech unit is considering a sole-source award to Mojave Repeater for integration services, with responses due November 5, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. MST under reference MSU-SSJ-27-6. The sole-source intent is the controlling constraint: this is not a request for competitive proposals, though vendors who believe they can provide equivalent products or services meeting all stated requirements may submit detailed descriptions of their offerings.

The scope is integration services for an automatic communications switchover between Silvus Streamcasters and Starlink systems. The commodity codes cited are Radio Communications Equipment (0809), Radio & Microwave Systems (0813), and Software (0910). Vendors must submit a detailed written response showing how their services meet the requirements in the attached Letter of Intent (1463104-event.pdf, 228KB), along with their full company name, address, phone number, and designated contacts with phone numbers and email addresses.

Questions and responses must go through the eMACS Q&A Board. Submitters must accept single point of contact information and review written comments before bid entry. The procurement stays sealed until the submission deadline. The notice was posted October 29, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. MDT. Payment terms are Net 30 with 0% financing available, and all bids must be submitted in US Dollars. Connor Markus (connor.markus@montana.edu) is the primary contact.
