Who can bid (5)
- Offer the required manufacturer's part number BI-411-00 as the approved source, a dealer or distributor of its product, or an authorized maker. An equivalent part needs written Government Engineering approval of a test plan before the solicitation was received, and final approval by award.
- Hold a current Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) status at Level 2 (Self) in the Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS), with an affirmation of continuous compliance, for each system that handles federal contract information or controlled unclassified information
- Be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) to receive an award

Things to watch (9)
From the version posted Oct 16, 2026.
- Serious: Only the named manufacturer's part number is accepted. Dealers must sell the approved maker's product; an equivalent part only qualifies with Government Engineering approval already in hand when the solicitation was received.
- Serious: CMMC Level 2 (Self) needed before award. A firm without a current Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification status in the Supplier Performance Risk System at that level is not eligible for award.
- Worth checking: Inspection and acceptance place is unclear. One narrative says inspection and acceptance happen at origin (the seller's facility); the line listing says destination, at Red River in Texarkana, TX, while the ship-to is Detroit Arsenal, MI. Ask the contracting officer which governs.
Show all 9Show fewer
- Worth checking: Option line is priced and evaluated. The Government can buy 3 Each more up to 365 days after award, and its evaluation counts your price for 100% of the option quantity.
- Worth checking: Contractor pays shipping to Detroit. Delivery is free on board (FOB) destination: you pay transportation and carry the risk until the item reaches the ship-to address.
- Minor: Item numbers differ between sections. Section B lists the base item as 0010 and the option as 0011; the delivery schedule table lists 0011 for the base quantity and 0012 for the option. Confirm with the contracting officer.
- Minor: Pre-award data requests have a 7-day limit. The Government may ask for financial, technical or production information and can find a firm not responsible if it is not sent within 7 days.
- Minor: Rated order. Any award is a DO rated order under the Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS: a priority rating for defense orders), so the contractor must follow its rules.
- Minor: Military packing and marking. Packing must meet military standards, including bar-coded markings, which can add cost for a small supplier.
