Black River Systems Ninja Support and Warranty Extension
Solicitation # W50S9C-26-Q-A016
The 158th Fighter Wing in South Burlington, Vermont, intends to award a single-source firm-fixed-price contract to Black River Systems Company, Inc. for annual technical support and hardware warranty extension of the proprietary Ninja GEN2 counter-unmanned aircraft system, with a total contract value of $84,000. This action is justified under FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(i)(B) due to the unique and specialized nature of the system, which only Black River Systems can support because of its proprietary design and lack of alternative vendors, as confirmed by market research across SAM.gov, GSA Advantage, and USASpending.gov. The procurement is designated as a total Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS code 334290, and the contract will be administered by the USPFO-VT with James Yoshikawa as the Contracting Officer and Patrick Bushey as the Technical Representative. Performance will occur at the 158th Fighter Wing location, with services rendered as needed over a one-year period to ensure continuous operational readiness, and no competitive bidding is planned unless responses received during the public notice window prompt a change in the government’s discretion. The contract includes no line-item breakdowns, options beyond the base warranty and support period, or explicit packaging, marking, or inspection standards beyond the sole-source justification. Acceptance of services will be determined by the Government based on adherence to the unique technical requirements of the Ninja GEN2 system, with the contractor responsible for ensuring system functionality without defined shipping, delivery, or FOB terms since the deliverable is service-based. All submissions in response to this notice must be received by August 14, 2026, to the Contracting Office in South Burlington, Vermont, and may be submitted via written documentation with digital signatures in PDF format, though all public-facing versions of the final contract must be redacted per FAR 5.401, 24.1, and 24.2 to remove dollar amounts, names, signatures, and proprietary data. The Government has not required security clearances for personnel, but the associated documentation is marked CUI//ISP-SSEL and must be handled according to Controlled Unclassified Information guidelines.
