This acquisition represents a mission-critical investment to mitigate risk of a catastrophic failure of a GLOBUS-X Band azimuth gearbox (s). This acquisition will be for the procurement of two (2) azimuth gearbox spares. GLOBUS-X relies on worn gearboxes (originally manufactured in 1993) with only one (1) spare. Over the course of program history, the X-Band has experienced a catastrophic failure of one (1) azimuth gearbox impacting mission execution, most recently 2018. The X-Band radar rests on a unique azimuth bull gear and associated azimuth bearing assembly that permits the radar to be rotated in azimuth direction. The azimuth gearbox also includes a unique pinon gear that aligns with the bull gear to result in slower rotation but greater torque at the bull gear's output. The operating conditions of this gearbox are specific to this system with no known compatibility with any existing or future program/system. It is anticipated that the solicitation will be posted on or around 24 March 2026 to the Government Point of Entry. Vendors are encouraged to monitor SAM for further updates and/or official posting. Any questions or concerns must be submitted in writing to the point of contact identified in this posting. ** Note: Companies must have current SAM record. ** Note: Starting 10 November 2025, Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) contract requirements in DFARS Clause 252.204-7021 may be included in any DoD Contracts or Solicitations. Companies must have a current Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification status that meets or exceeds the requirements in future solicitation or contract.
