The hand controllers are required to ensure compatibility with existing systems and must be sourced from an authorized distributor or OEM.

Incumbent Analysis (see Incumbents section for more detail) This opportunity for DACO hand controllers (N0017826Q6781) shows a confirmed incumbent based on prior contract N0017825P6741, awarded to “Daco Hand Controllers” for $24,395 (05/21/25–12/10/25) for DACO yoke controllers. The requirement also aligns with earlier, closely related DACO controller procurements at Dahlgren—such as dual lever throttles and dual lever throttle items—indicating the same manufacturer-specific, custom part-number controller family used to maintain system configuration commonality.
