How to bid on Army LMR OEM Warranty and Maintenance Support for Fort Novosel and HAAP
What the agency is buying and why it matters
The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) is looking for extended warranty and maintenance support for existing Motorola Land Mobile Radio (LMR) systems. This support is for Fort Novosel, Alabama, and the Holston Army Ammunition Plant (HAAP), Tennessee. The work includes OEM warranty administration, technical support, diagnosis and repair of equipment failures, software updates, and managing transportation for warranty actions.
The Army needs this support to ensure its critical communication systems remain operational and covered by the manufacturer's warranty. The planned performance period is from September 30, 2026, to September 29, 2027, with an option for one additional year.
Key dates and what happens at the deadline
This is a Request for Information (RFI) published on September 11, 2026. If you believe your company can provide these services, you must submit a detailed capability statement in writing by September 21, 2026, at 11:00 AM ET.
This notice is not a request for quotes or proposals. The agency intends to award a sole-source contract to Motorola Solutions, Inc. However, they will consider all responsible sources who submit a capability statement by the deadline.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity is primarily for companies that can provide Motorola Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) extended warranty and maintenance support. The agency states that Motorola Solutions, Inc. is currently the only source capable of fulfilling this requirement due to proprietary technical data, system-specific knowledge, and OEM repair capabilities.
The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 334210, Telephone Apparatus Manufacturing. This RFI is specifically for firms that can demonstrate they are the OEM, Motorola Solutions, Inc., or possess the necessary OEM authorization and capabilities to provide the required Motorola OEM extended warranty and maintenance support.

Tips for preparing a competitive response
Even though this is an RFI for a potential sole-source award, a strong capability statement is crucial if you intend to challenge the sole-source justification. Clearly articulate your firm's ability to provide Motorola OEM-backed support. Detail your access to proprietary technical data, OEM repair capabilities, software/firmware support, replacement components, licensing, and warranty authority.
Focus on demonstrating that your company can provide the exact OEM extended warranty coverage and associated maintenance support for the existing Motorola LMR systems. Highlight any official Motorola authorizations or partnerships that validate your ability to perform this specific type of work. Ensure your statement directly addresses the agency's stated requirements and concerns about maintaining OEM-supported maintenance and compatibility.
