Cobra PX650 Two-Way Radios with Charging Dock (Brand Name Only)

The U.S. Department of Defense, through the 502d Contracting Squadron at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland, Texas, has awarded a single-source, brand-name procurement for 80 units of Cobra PX650 six-pack two-way radios with bulk chargers under solicitation F2MTBG6056A001. The contract, valued at $21,120, is exclusively limited to small businesses under a Total Small Business Set-Aside as defined by FAR 19.5, with no competing bids permitted due to the requirement for exact interoperability with existing training systems. The radios, identified by SKU PX650-BCH6, must meet precise technical specifications including 22-channel analog operation, 2-watt output power, rugged splashproof construction, dedicated volume and channel knobs, and waterproof design to ensure seamless compatibility with current training protocols during Basic Military Training and PACER FORGE deployments. Delivery is required at Building 5189, 2631 Gar Ave., JBSA-Lackland, TX 78236-5448, and the procurement is justified under FAR 12.102(a) because no equivalent products exist without disrupting training continuity. Although the contract includes an implied option for future deliveries, no formal option clauses or quantities are specified. The government will conduct future market research to identify potential alternatives, but this acquisition is strictly limited to the designated Cobra PX650 model. No specific packaging, marking, preservation, or inspection standards beyond the product’s inherent ruggedness and manufacturer specifications are cited, and no formal FAR clauses, MIL-STD requirements, or COTR assignment are documented. The primary point of contact for inquiries is Jack Caniglia, with Amanda Mateo serving as the contracting officer, and submissions were required via email to Caniglia by April 9, 2026.
