AI Contract Overview

Show more

The U.S. Air Force, through the 319th Contracting Squadron at Grand Forks Air Force Base, North Dakota, intends to award a sole source contract for annual maintenance, calibration, and repair of Mobile Automated Ultrasonic Scanner (MAUS) equipment used in the Nondestructive Inspections Lab to inspect RQ-4 airframes for structural defects such as cracks, dis-bonds, and delaminations. This action is justified under statutory authority 41 U.S.C. 1901 and 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), as the MAUS system is a proprietary product line manufactured by Boeing, and only NDT Solutions, LLC holds exclusive authorization from the original equipment manufacturer to access the necessary technical data, parts, and trained personnel required to perform these services. Unauthorized service providers risk causing irreversible damage to multi-million-dollar equipment, voiding warranties, and introducing unacceptable mission risk that could compromise the structural integrity and flight safety of RQ-4 assets. A recent Sources Sought Notice confirmed no other capable vendors exist, and Boeing has formally recognized NDT Solutions, LLC as the sole authorized service provider. The contract, identified by solicitation number FA465926QM005, falls under PSC H316 and NAICS code 811210, with performance located at Grand Forks AFB. Interested parties may submit a capability statement of no more than five pages demonstrating OEM-authorized access to proprietary resources, but submission does not guarantee award and is solely to validate potential exclusivity. All submissions must be emailed to 2d Lt Jarred Cronin by August 4, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. Central Standard Time.

Notice of Intent to Award a Sole Source Contract – FY26 Grand Forks AFB Mobile Automated Ultrasonic Scanner (MAUS) Maintenance


THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS


This is a notice of intent to award a sole source contract under statutory authority 41 U.S.C. 1901, as implemented by Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO) 12.102. Further delineated under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1): “the property or services needed by the agency are available from only one responsible source or only from a limited number of responsible sources and no other type of property or services will satisfy the needs of the agency”. The 319th Contracting Squadron, Grand Forks Air Force Base (AFB), North Dakota, requires annual maintenance, calibration, and repair services for MAUS equipment used by the Nondestructive Inspections (NDI) Lab to inspect RQ-4 airframes for cracks, dis-bonds, and delaminations.


The anticipated contract will provide for the uninterrupted service and operational support of the MAUS units in accordance with the Performance Work Statement (PWS). Award to an unauthorized contractor would result in unacceptable delays, potential damage to multi-million-dollar equipment, and the voiding of existing warranties due to the highly specialized, proprietary nature of the Boeing Global Services AUSS Mobile product line. The loss or degradation of MAUS inspection capabilities would severely compromise the structural integrity and flight safety of the RQ-4 mission at Grand Forks AFB.


Based on the results of a recent Sources Sought Notice (posted on SAM.gov on April 15, 2026), no other interested vendors were found to be capable or authorized to provide maintenance services for the MAUS system. The Original Equipment Manufacturer, Boeing, has provided a formal declaration acknowledging that NDT Solutions, LLC is the sole authorized distributor and service provider for this product line, holding exclusive access to the required proprietary technical data and parts. Therefore, only NDT Solutions, LLC is capable of providing these services without incurring unacceptable mission risk or schedule impacts. The Product Service Code (PSC) is H316, and the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 811210.


Interested businesses may identify their capability to fulfill this requirement by submitting a capability statement. Responders must clearly demonstrate in their capability statement that they possess the OEM-authorized access to proprietary data, parts, and trained personnel required to service Boeing MAUS units, ensuring no service interruptions or added investment costs to the Government. Documentation submitted shall not exceed 5 pages and must be submitted electronically.


Submit capability statements by email to 2d Lt Cronin, Jarred, Contract Specialist, at jarred.cronin@us.af.mil no later than 04 August 2026, 1000L Central Standard Time (CST).

Commercial-Derived Insights for Novel Tactical Surveillance, Reconnaissance, and Tracking (TacSRT) Capabilities
Solicitation # DAF26BZ01-NV506
The contract seeks rapidly deployable, commercially derived sensing and analytic capabilities to enhance tactical surveillance, reconnaissance, and tracking for warfighters, with a focus on achieving operational utility within one year. It targets non-missile-warning space and ground-based systems that deliver real-time, actionable intelligence by leveraging existing commercial infrastructure and services, eliminating the need for new government-developed space hardware. Solutions must span the sensing-to-analysis continuum—covering data collection, phenomenology exploitation, multi-sensor fusion, change detection, activity characterization, and AI/ML-driven analytics—while enabling speed-of-need decision-making in dynamic operational environments. The program emphasizes innovative approaches such as high-cadence environmental monitoring, deep maritime surveillance, space-to-air or space-to-ground tipping and cueing, and the fusion of structured and unstructured data, all designed to produce testable, operator-ready outputs as an initial operational capability. All proposals must be unclassified and align with the Space Force Commercial Space Strategy, prioritizing commercial space-as-a-service models and proven commercial technologies over government-built systems. Stand-alone hardware, software, analytic tools, or integrated workflows are acceptable, provided they do not involve missile warning, kinetic interceptors, satellite buses, or launch vehicles. The effort is a total small business set-aside, restricted to entities with fewer than 500 employees, and is part of a broader initiative to operationalize commercial innovations faster than traditional acquisition cycles allow. The goal is not to generate operational planning products through existing data marketplaces but to introduce novel, unique capabilities that directly address current gaps in tactical awareness and responsiveness. Proposals are due by July 22, 2026, under solicitation number DAF26BZ01-NV506, issued by the United States Air Force under the Department of Defense.
