This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. Solicitation W52P1J-15-T-KP10 is issued as a request for quotation (RFQ). The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 2005-76. This request for quotation is issued using Simplified Acquisition Procedures in accordance with FAR 13.5. The associated North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 334220-Radio and Television Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing. The small business size standard is 750 employees. This acquisition is being procured under full and open competition. DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUIREMENT: This requirement is to procure subscriber units that are fully operational with a Smartnet Type II Land Mobile Radio (LMR) system manufactured by Motorola. The requirement is for end users at Redstone Arsenal, Alabama (RSA) who are currently operating on the Smartnet Type II system. Each portable subscriber unit shall be fully operational to include, at a minimum, programming, battery (conditioned), antenna, and belt clip. Mobiles and Desktops must be delivered and installed in accordance with (IAW) the Customer Requirements Statement (CRS.) Mobile and desktop subscriber units shall be installed in accordance with commercial standards.

Please contact Mr. Dean Allen, Mr. Rickie Green and Mr. Neal Dedicatoria by 19 December 2014 to request a date and time (date availability will be on a first come first serve basis, see contact information below.) Redstone will be conducting a Land Mobile Radio compatibility test as part of the Site Survey. The purpose of this compatibility test is for potential LMR Offerors and Manufacturers who are interested in providing a quote on this RFQ to test and verify that their equipment is compatible with Redstone's existing LMR system (Smartnet Type II LMR system manufactured by Motorola). This will be the Offeror's pre-proposal opportunity to evaluate and examine everything required to address the requirements of the CRS and have the Government technical team provide clarification of any requirements the Offeror thinks need clarified.
