The Federal Aviation Administration intends to award a single-source contract to OPTO 22 for the procurement of the GRV-EPIC-PR2 processor, a specially modified version of the groov EPIC System, which has been designated as the exclusive Programmable Logic Controller baseline for the UMAC system used across ASR-8, ASR-9, and ASR-11 radar platforms. This decision is based on an extensive evaluation that determined no alternative commercial off-the-shelf PLC solution can meet the operational, technical, and certification requirements without incurring prohibitive costs, delays, and risks associated with redesign, retesting, and recertification. The GRV-EPIC-PR2 processor includes FAA-specific modifications that are not available in the standard commercial product and are essential for compatibility with existing hardware, software, and mission-critical infrastructure, making OPTO 22 the only authorized source for this configuration. This procurement is not subject to competitive solicitation under FAA Acquisition Management System guidelines, and no set-aside provisions apply. The North American Industry Classification System code is 334419, with a size standard of no more than 750 employees averaged over the past 24 months. The contract will be performed in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and all inquiries must be submitted in writing to Contract Specialist Nina Musser by 3 p.m. on Tuesday, July 21, 2026. The announcement serves solely as a formal notice of intent and is not a solicitation, with no formal bidding process available for this requirement.

NOTICE OF DECISION TO CONTRACT WITH A SINGLE SOURCE: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center, intends to award to a single source contract to OPTO 22 for the procurement of Universal Monitoring and Control (UMAC) Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) Edge Programmable Industrial Controller (EPIC) Pre-Configured Processors


In accordance with the FAA Acquisition Management System Paragraph 3.2.2.4, the purpose of this announcement is to inform industry of the basis of the FAA's decision to contract with a selected source via single source procedures. 


The requirement to procure the GRV-EPIC-PR2 processor, which includes non-standard modifications not available in the commercial off-the-shelf-version. The groov EPIC System, including the GRV-EPIC-PR2 processor, was selected following an evaluation of available COTS programmable logic controller (PLC) solutions for use across the ASR-8, ASR-9, and ASR-11radar platforms. As a result of this evaluation and subsequent system development, the groov EPIC System became the only approved PLC baseline for the UMAC. Use of any alternative PLC would require extensive engineering analysis, software redevelopment, testing, certification, and configuration management approval, resulting in significant cost, schedule, and technical risk. In addition, the required GRV-EPIC-PR2 processor incorporates FAA-specific modifications and configurations that are not available in the standard commercial version of the product. These modifications were developed and validated as part of the UMAC design and are necessary to ensure compatibility with existing hardware, software, and operational requirements. No other source is authorized to provide the approved modified configuration


The proposed principle North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this effort is 334419 - Other Electronic Component Manufacturing with a Size Standard of no more than 750 full-time or part-time employees averaged over the past 24 months.


This announcement is for informational purposes only, not a Solicitation/Request for Proposal. A competitive solicitation is not available for this procurement. All questions pertaining to this announcement should be addressed in writing to the Contract specialist, Nina Musser, contact@example.gov by 3pm on Tuesday 21 July 2026.

BROAD AGENCY ANNOUNCEMENT - FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION ADVANCEMENT OF AVIATION RESEARCH AND TECHNOLOGIES
Solicitation # BAA-693KA8-26-RCSO
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued Broad Agency Announcement BAA-693KA8-26-RCSO to solicit innovative research, commercial technologies, and prototype projects aimed at advancing National Airspace System (NAS) capabilities. This competitive solicitation is designed to engage traditional and nontraditional government contractors, as well as nonprofit research institutions, to improve NAS-related platforms, systems, components, and materials. The BAA remains active for five years and utilizes Other Transaction Agreements (OTAs) authorized under the FAA Reauthorization Act of 1996, meaning the resulting agreements are not subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) or the FAA Acquisition Management System (AMS). The acquisition process is structured in three phases: the submission of a Research or Solution Brief in response to specific Areas of Interest (AOIs) posted on SAM.gov, a potential Pitch session, and a final full written proposal via a Request for Proposal (RFP). Current research interests include convective weather, cloud ceiling and visibility, and icing weather diagnostic and forecasting. Proposals are evaluated based on relevance to the AOI, technical merit, company viability, innovation, and data rights, with rough order of magnitude pricing and notional schedules serving as pass/fail gates. The period of performance for projects is generally limited to 36 months, and all submissions must remain unclassified.
