Sole-source Air Force contract modification for TACKit kits, spares, test assets, and field support

The Air Force is justifying a sole-source contract modification for Tactical Airborne Communication Kits (TACKit) and related support for aircraft. - Action: Sole-source modification to Baxter Aerospace contract FA861226CB002; this notice is a justification for an award action, not an open competition. - Buyer: Department of the Air Force, Air Force Materiel Command, IDAF PAE C3BM/C3K. - Estimated value: $58.9 million, including options. - Requested items: Additional TACKit operational units, spare units, spare parts, and test assets. Quantities and part numbers are not provided in the available text. - Support: Field service representatives for squadron locations, including OCONUS deployments, CONUS surge hours, and travel. - Sole-source rationale: The Air Force states Baxter is the only source able to meet time-sensitive operational requirements without unacceptable delay. - Timing: The current contract ends in March 2027. The modification’s period of performance is not stated, and TACKit requirements are anticipated to continue for multiple years beyond that date.
