About the company
N-Ear Inc., a small disadvantaged business manufacturer of law enforcement communication equipment based in Tampa, Florida, operates as a prime contractor supplying specialized earpieces, surveillance kits, and push-to-talk microphone systems to federal law enforcement and training agencies through GSA's Multiple Award Schedule and direct purchase orders. The firm competes full-and-open; its recent award portfolio carries no set-aside designations aside from a total small business set-aside category on a pair of U.S. Marshals Service Training Academy purchases in 2025.
N-Ear's capability portfolio centers on audio and video equipment manufacturing (NAICS 334310) and related safety and rescue equipment under PSC 4240. The company designs and manufactures communication devices including single earpiece configurations (left and right), surveillance kits combining earpieces with push-to-talk microphone units, and accessories with IP65 ratings and M12 connectors for field durability. Representative work includes a $47.6 thousand total small business set-aside purchase order from the U.S. Marshals Service Training Academy (August 2025) for 200 N-EAR 360 Original single earpieces and 250 choice-tier PTT/microphone devices to support fugitive apprehension training; a $90 thousand purchase order from the U.S. Secret Service (August 2025) for earpieces; and a $650 thousand Federal Supply Schedule contract awarded by GSA's Federal Acquisition Service (March 2025) covering law enforcement personal equipment under Special Item Number 332999, with a 32% government discount and delivery terms through March 2030.
Customer concentration reflects a law enforcement focus. The Department of Homeland Security's U.S. Secret Service leads on combined potential value ($181 thousand across 3 purchase orders), followed by the GSA Federal Acquisition Service's $650 thousand MAS ceiling, the Department of Justice U.S. Marshals Service Training Academy ($128 thousand across 4 awards), and smaller activity with the Marshals Service Investigative Operations Division and the Department of Transportation's Federal Aviation Administration Aeronautical Center. All eleven awards in the portfolio are prime contracts; N-Ear does not subcontract.
Activity accelerated in 2025 with seven awards, following a two-year gap after early registrations in 2020 and 2021. The most recent delivery order is a $11.5 thousand April 2026 award from the U.S. Marshals Service Training Academy under the MAS contract for earpiece surveillance equipment supporting fugitive apprehension, scheduled for completion March 2027. Two awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, carrying combined potential value of $34 thousand. Combined obligated dollars across all awards total $355 thousand against a combined potential value of $1 million, indicating ongoing fulfillment and reorder activity typical of consumable communication-equipment procurement patterns in federal law enforcement.
