## Description

The NATO Communications and Information Agency (NCIA) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) to identify potential sources and gather information regarding industry capabilities to support the tactical radio communication system within military units and elements. This RFI is issued solely for informational purposes and does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP), Request for Quotation (RFQ), or invitation for bid.

However, respondents are requested to provide a Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) cost estimate that supports the information submitted. The estimate should clearly state all inclusions and exclusions, and any optional components must be listed separately as distinct line items. NCIA is looking for a handheld tactical radio system solution to enable voice communication and coordination strictly within tactical elements, and units during convoy movement and deployment phases.

The solution must support at least a 24h operation and must be able to be installed in operated vehicles without any (extensive) vehicle modification. The tactical radios procured by this project are not meant to replace any current NATO inventory of radios, but to provide an additional level of reliable short-range communication, unclassified, for redundancy and mitigation purposes of any risk related to the readiness and employment of NATO DCIS Detachment in support of Alliance Operations, Missions and Exercises.

Do NOT submit your RFI response to the Department of Commerce. Submission instructions and additional details can be found in the RFI (attached). The NCIA reference for this RFI is MS-424361-TACTICAL-RADIOS, and all correspondence concerning this matter should reference this number. The response deadline is NLT 12:00 hours Central European Time (CET) on 27 May 2026. Your participation in this RFI is greatly appreciated.
