The Defense Microelectronics Activity has awarded positions on a potential $7.2 billion contract vehicle to eight companies to support the agency’s work on new technology insertions and applications for military systems.
Contractors will bid for individual task orders over a 10-year ordering period to engineer components for the Defense Department to address operational issues with electronics’ hardware and software under the Advanced Technology Support Program IV program, DoD said Thursday.
The ATSP4 program is scheduled to run through March 31, 2028, and covers research, analysis, design, simulation, prototyping, integration, testing and producibility services.
Nine proposals were submitted to DMEA for the indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract that also includes support for foreign military sales.
The awardees are:
- Aeroflex
- BAE Systems
- Boeing (NYSE: BA)
- General Dynamics (NYSE: GD)
- Honeywell International (NYSE: HON)
- Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT)
- Northrop Grumman (NYSE: NOC)
- Raytheon (NYSE: RTN)
DMEA, which operates under the umbrella of the Office of the Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology & Logistics, aims to help DoD manage complex microelectronic systems.
