Description

Background
The National Guard Bureau is issuing a sole source contract to Dark Wolf Ventures LLC for the acquisition of specialized communication equipment necessary for mission command during large-scale training events. The goal of this contract is to ensure continuous communication capabilities in rapidly evolving environments, which is critical for operational effectiveness. The estimated price for this contract is $424,449.80.

Work Details
This contract involves the delivery of the Dark Wolf Howler Deployment Kit along with associated accessories, including the Dark Wolf Satellite Backhaul System (SBS) and the Dark Wolf Ventures ATAK plug-in. The contractor will also provide activation files, training, and technical support.

The specific items required are:
- Dark Wolf Howler Deployment Kit
- Dark Wolf Satellite Backhaul System (where required)
- Dark Wolf Ventures ATAK plug-in
- Activation files
- Training and technical support.

This equipment is essential for maintaining communication between internal team members and external partners, thereby enhancing command and control capabilities.

Place of Performance
111 South George Mason Drive Arlington VA 22204-1373

Bidder Requirements
Only Dark Wolf Ventures LLC can fulfill this requirement due to proprietary technology protected by U.S. patents. The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 2304(a)(1) or 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), indicating that no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.

Incumbent Analysis (see Incumbents section for more detail)
The prior/related award W912QM25PA013 (Atlantic Diving Supply, $58,233; 09/17/25–02/28/26) appears to involve the Dark Wolf Howler Deployment System, which is described as a proprietary communications platform. The current requirement for the WTC EXCON Battle Tracking Equipment similarly calls for delivery of the Dark Wolf Howler Deployment Kit and associated backhaul/ATAK components and activation/training support, suggesting the work is a continuation or expansion of the same communications capability for mission command during training events.

This equipment also offers the ability to combine and retransmit multiple waveforms, a capability that is vital for maintaining continuous communication with both internal team members and external organizational partners. This functionality directly contributes to improved command and control, particularly in rapidly evolving or austere environments where communication flexibility is essential. Failure to procure this equipment would critically limit our ability to execute mission command effectively during large-scale training events and would degrade the organization's overall ability to support training events. Therefore, acquisition of this system is both justified and necessary to ensure mission success and maintain operational effectiveness.
