DARPA Pushes Contract Ceiling for Technical & Analytical Support Services to $1B

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency has awarded $183 million in modifications to its procurement vehicle for technical and analytical support services, raising the contract’s maximum value to $1.03 billion.

Seven companies hold prime positions on the TASS contract originally announced in August 2018 and valued at $850 million.

A Department of Defense announcement released Friday indicates the latest award has a completion date of August this year and contains task orders that could extend the contract through August 2028.

The incumbent TASS vendors are:

  • Avantus Federal, formerly E3/Sentinel
  • Booz Allen Hamilton (NYSE: BAH)
  • Centra Technology
  • ECS Federal
  • ManTech
  • Schafer Corp. a Belcan company
  • Strategic Analysis

These companies were awarded the modifications as DARPA is preparing its next iteration of the acquisition program slated to expire in August.
