Computer System

The Department of Defense, specifically the Utah DLA Aviation office at Hill Air Force Base, is conducting a combined Request for Information and Synopsis to gather market research regarding the procurement of six computer systems. This notice aims to identify whether other qualified sources, including commercial or non-developmental items, can meet the agency's specific requirements. The government seeks to enhance competition and improve small business access to contracting opportunities but clarifies that this is not a Request for Proposal or a binding commitment to contract. Responses, including capability statements or proposals, are welcome and will be considered, with a response deadline set for mid-May 2026. The procurement involves a specific computer system identified by NSN 7010-01-705-5751 and part number 1320-5630003-01, with delivery expected on or before May 21, 2027. The requirement is not anticipated to be set aside for small businesses, although subcontracting opportunities may exist, particularly through the prime contractor Northrup Grumman. The authority for this sole source acquisition is based on the limited number of responsible sources able to supply the item, and while the solicitation will not follow policies for commercial item acquisition, parties interested in providing commercial items are encouraged to express their capability. The acquisition is also subject to applicable Free Trade Agreements. For further information, interested parties are advised to contact the designated point of contact, Scottina Malia.
