About this award

Naval Air Systems Command awarded a $172.2 million ceiling, cost-plus-incentive definitive contract to BAE Systems Information And Electronic Systems Integration Inc. for non-recurring engineering development of the Dual Band Decoy on September 12, 2023. No set-aside was used. The awardee is a large business and a foreign-owned subsidiary of BAE Systems PLC.

The Dual Band Decoy provides countermeasures protection for the F/A-18E/F against modern RF threat radars and is intended to replace the ALE-55 and ALE-50 decoys. Place of performance is Nashua, New Hampshire. The period of performance runs from award through an ultimate completion date of November 30, 2028. The award description carries an update to Section I, IUID clause 252.211-7003, paragraph C(i).

The originating action was a pre-solicitation Request for Information posted December 16, 2020, with responses due January 29, 2021. The RFI, issued by Naval Air Systems Command with its contracting office at Patuxent River, Maryland, sought market information for planning, cost estimation, and design approaches.

Seven additional subcontractors supply machined parts, mechanical assemblies, test equipment, and connectors. Two September 2024 subcontract actions are equitable adjustments to contract cost and schedule resulting from stop work orders issued to the contractor, including a $29,790 adjustment to DB Control.
