About this award

Written by GovTribe AI ·

Air Combat Command awarded a definitive contract to Applied Research Associates, Inc. for Mission Planning Support Tool (MPST) service on January 28, 2022, with a ceiling value of $5,011,963.32 under firm fixed-price pricing and no set-aside.

Place of performance is Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri. The contract extends through June 27, 2027. The originating solicitation addresses mission planning support tool service delivery supporting Air Combat Command operations.

Applied Research Associates operates as a for-profit Subchapter S corporation headquartered in Albuquerque, New Mexico, delivering research and engineering services, modeling and simulation, systems engineering, test and evaluation, and technical consulting across federal defense and civilian agencies. The company competes full-and-open without SBA certifications and maintains extensive vehicle access including OASIS+ Unrestricted, Alliant 3, ASTRO GWAC, and Seaport Next Generation, alongside deep task-order relationships with DTRA's Combating Weapons of Mass Destruction IDIQ and multiple Air Force vehicles. ARA functions primarily as a prime contractor (98% of awards) with internal delivery capacity; Service Contract Inventory reporting shows roughly 177–235 FTEs annually across reportable federal service contracts, with median government-paid rates near $54.14 per hour. Defense customer concentration is heavily weighted toward Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center Eglin Air Force Base (34 awards, $46.65 billion combined potential value), DTRA ($13.51 billion), Naval Sea Systems Command ($11.62 billion), and Army RDT&E Command ($8.86 billion), representing 81 percent of combined potential value across the full footprint.
