Security Drop Arm Buttons
Contract Opportunity Analysis
The Department of Defense, specifically the Air Force Test Center at Edwards Air Force Base, is seeking information from qualified contractors regarding the provision and installation of ten external control buttons for the FAAC drop arm system at the Entry Control Point (ECP). The objective is to enhance operational efficiency and security by allowing gate guards to independently control the drop arms for each lane, thereby improving traffic management and operational redundancy. The buttons must be durable, weather-resistant, and fully compatible with the existing system, with installation performed by qualified technicians to minimize disruption. Interested parties are encouraged to submit capability statements and market research quotes by September 22, 2025, to John Walker at john.walker.68@us.af.mil, as the government will not pay for the information provided.
