    Brief

    This is a contract details notice, not a call for competition. This procurement is being concluded as a sole-source acquisition due to an absence of competitive alternatives for technical reasons. Only a particular supplier can provide the required waveguide switch goods and services. This notice serves to provide transparency regarding the contract details and the justification for the non-competitive procurement method. Interested parties should note that this is a notification of an existing contract award rather than an open solicitation for bids.
