The Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane Division is seeking spare parts, testing, evaluation, repairs, and engineering support for the MK 244 Master Launcher Control Panel and the Local Control Panel, both critical components of the MK 59 Decoy Launching System used to deploy inflatable radar decoys against anti-ship missile threats. The government plans to award a five-year Firm-Fixed Price contract with a maximum value of $12 million to Lakenheath Electronics Design, the sole authorized manufacturer, due to the proprietary nature of the control panels and the inability of any other party to reproduce, maintain, or support the systems without access to proprietary designs and data. Competing this requirement is deemed impractical as alternative sources cannot meet the technical specifications or timeline, and doing so would introduce unacceptable delays and increased costs that would compromise operational readiness. All offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management and the Joint Certification Program to access controlled technical documentation, and responses must be submitted by May 26, 2026. While the procurement is being conducted on a sole source basis under FAR 6.103-1, the government retains full discretion to reconsider its acquisition strategy should responses to the solicitation demonstrate viable competitive alternatives. Inquiries should be directed to Margaret Riser at the provided Navy email or phone number, referencing solicitation number N0016426RWR09. The contract will be performed at Crane, Indiana, and the NAICS code used is 334511 for radar, sonar equipment, and navigational control instrument manufacturing.

Full Description

Show more

Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC), Crane Division, has a requirement for components, TT&E, repairs, and engineering services of the MK 244 Master Launcher Control Panel (MLCP) (P/N 8603317 Rev 01) and Local Control Panel (LCP) (P/N 8603339), which are key components of the MK 59 Decoy Launching System (DLS). The MK 59 DLS is an inflatable passive floating decoy system capable of providing protection against Anti-Ship Missiles (ASMs). The MK 59 DLS is a deck-mounted countermeasure system used to launch an advanced inflatable radar decoy cartridge to confuse hostile tracking and homing associated with ASM threats. The system consists of a deck-mounted launcher connected to an operator control panel used to launch the decoy.  


The Government intends to award a Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) contract with a five-year term. The anticipated contract ceiling is $12,000,000.00.


SOLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT- The proposed contract action is for the supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with one source, Lakenheath Electronics Design, 4915 Saint Elmo Ave. STE 501, Bethesda, Maryland, 20814, under the authority of FAR 6.103-1 only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. The requirement is being solicited on a sole source basis because of the proprietary design of the MLCP and LCP units and the manufacturer’s ability to produce them and perform TT&E and repairs. The Government does not possess the necessary data or drawings of the latest design or configuration to be able to compete manufacture and sustainment of MLCP and LCP units. These are a particular product to one manufacturer, and the unacceptable delays and duplicative cost in fulfilling the agency requirement through any other source would impact the mission. All responsible sources may submit a proposal, as appropriate, which will be considered by the agency.



However, a determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this solicitation is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of re-evaluating the justification for sole source or limitation of sources and making a determination to change the acquisition strategy to a competitive procurement.
