About this agency
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Nuclear Weapons Center, a major command contracting office within the Air Force's principal acquisition and sustainment arm, executes federal contracts supporting nuclear-weapons-related engineering, logistics, maintenance, and operational readiness across Air Force installations.
The Center has awarded 5,183 federal contracts with a combined potential value of $27.96 billion since its first award in November 1996, with $5.49 billion obligated to date. Recent activity has declined sharply: 73 awards in 2022, 71 in 2023, 38 in 2024, 20 in 2025, and 11 year-to-date in 2026. The most recently recorded award date is July 2026.
Among active prime contractors over the last five years, competition is fragmented by award count (top five cover 17% of recent awards) but concentrated on a few high-value performers. Sterling Computers Corporation leads by count with 11 awards ($1.8 million combined potential value), followed by HPI Federal LLC (7 awards, $490 thousand), The Boeing Company, Government Acquisitions LLC, and Pergravis LLC (each 6 awards). By potential value, Georgia TECH Applied Research Corp and The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory LLC dominate with $30.9 million and $30.2 million respectively, followed by The Boeing Company at $26.5 million. Across the portfolio history, 1,826 distinct prime contractors have been awarded. A substantial portion of recent awards carries no reported potential value, indicating heavy reliance on Schedule task orders, BPA calls, and other below-threshold mechanisms.
The Center's set-aside distribution reflects a majority open-market posture: 3,269 awards (63%) carry no set-aside designation. Small-business set-asides account for 1,082 awards (21%), while 8(a) sole-source awards represent 747 awards (14%). Competitive 8(a), HUBZone, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, Woman-Owned Small Business, and other designations collectively comprise less than 1% of the portfolio.
Current contracting activity spans operational and facility-support requirements. Pre-solicitation market research is active for nuclear-weapons transport infrastructure—FA8214PTT2Transport (specialized HAZMAT freight carriers; due October 30) and FA8214PTT2COTS (modified commercial trailers for rocket-engine transport; updated September 22, due September 30). Multiple small-business set-aside solicitations for base services are open or recently closed: HVLS fan installation at Kirtland AFB (FA9401-26-Q-0042, amended multiple times, due September 23), lifeguard and aquatics management at Kirtland (FA940126Q0027, due September 23), and facility utility extensions (FA940126Q0043, due September 22). A pre-solicitation notice for flight-recorder download and data decompression hardware and software solutions (FA940126Mishap, due October 28) signals near-term engineering work. Specialized notices indicate active sole-source awards and market research in tactical gear, communications systems (Strategic Messaging System, closed September 9), and mission-support equipment, with a Strategic Messaging System call for primes having closed in early September.
