Domestic Datalink Services (DDLS) FY 2027 Industry Day December 8-10, 2026

Solicitation # 693KA8-26-R-DDLSID

The Federal Aviation Administration is conducting market research through an Industry Day event from December 8 to 10, 2026, to inform the future acquisition of Domestic Datalink Services (DDLS). This initiative aims to replace the Data Communication Integrated Services contract expiring on September 30, 2029. The primary objective is to secure operational network services and monitoring, known as Data Communications Network Service, to support the EnRoute Automation Modernization System and Tower datalink System. These services are critical for the routing and delivery of Controller Pilot Data Link Communication messages for Air Traffic Control within Domestic NAS airspace, requiring 24/7 availability. The FAA is considering the establishment of one or multiple 10-year contracts, utilizing either a Firm Fixed Price performance-based structure or a Firm Fixed Price with Economic Price Adjustments. While this notice is not a formal solicitation or a request for proposals, the agency is seeking vendor capability statements under NAICS Code 517810 to refine its acquisition strategy, with a formal Screening Information Request expected in the second quarter of FY2029. Interested vendors must submit registration forms and capability statements by November 10, 2026, to Pearl Winston.

Ground Station as a Service

Solicitation # 1332KP27DGSAAS

The Department of Commerce, through NOAA and NESDIS, intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price contract to ATLAS Space Operations Inc. valued between 7 million and 10 million dollars. The contract focuses on procuring scalable telemetry, tracking, and command aperture services to provide satellite-to-ground communication. This effort supports the delivery of environmental data from remote platforms, including missions such as COSMIC-2, KOMPSAT-5, and PAZ, and encompasses site certification, telemetry downlink, and satellite commanding data services. The government is pursuing a non-competitive procurement because ATLAS is identified as the only vendor with the necessary operational authorizations, non-transferable international spectrum licenses, and qualified front-end processor architectures required to avoid mission-critical data loss and schedule disruptions. While this is a notice of intent for a sole-source award, other responsible sources may submit capability statements to the contracting officer for evaluation to determine if a competitive procurement is warranted.

Full Description

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) provides air traffic control services over large parts of the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. In 1995, the FAA developed and deployed an Oceanic Data Link (ODL) system that provides among other functions, direct communications between Controllers and Pilots using communication protocols collectively known as Future Air Navigation System Controller/Pilot Datalink Communication (FANS-1/A CPDLC). The ODL system also provides digital communications with the Aeronautical Radio Incorporated (ARINC) High Frequency (HF) Radio Operator (RO). The ODL system is currently installed at the FAA Oakland and New York Air Route Traffic Control Centers (ARTCCs). A similar system is deployed at the FAA Anchorage ARTCC. The FAA is in the process of replacing the ODL system with the Advanced Technologies and Oceanic Procedures (ATOP) system. The FAA will be transitioning from ODL to ATOP over the next 18 months, which is an extremely complicated undertaking. The ODL and ATOP FANS-1/A communication services are currently provided by SITA under a five-year contract that was awarded in 1999. The following bullets provide the FAA requirements for the Oceanic Data link service: 1. Potential vendors must be currently interfaced to the FAA's National Airspace Data Interchange Network (NADIN) Packet Switched Network (PSN), including the NADIN PSN test facility located at the FAA's William J. Hughes Technical Center (WJHTC); 2. Potential vendors must currently be providing FANS-1/A telecommunication services in FAA controlled airspace over the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans; 3. Potential vendors must be able to provide FANS-1/A telecommunication services to FANS-1/A avionics testbeds (e.g. the Boeing 747 or 777 test bench); 4. Potential vendors must have a demonstrated technical expertise in the provision and maintenance of telecommunications networks used in the provision of air traffic services. Interested companies that believe they have the technical and administrative capability to fulfill the requirements herein shall respond with their capability statement not later than June 09, 2004. Respondents must include their proven capability of working with a technically equivalent system in a similar environment and a proven record of providing timely and efficient technically equivalent system support. It is requested that written responses include telephone number for point of contact, show that the firm has the necessary technical skills, qualified personnel, experience and past performance in similar work; and state the purpose of interest, i.e, prime contractor, subcontractor or information only. This public announcement is not a request for proposal.
