Raytheon Company's Advanced Products & Solutions division received a definitive contract from Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) valued at approximately $85.3 million for Dual Band Radar (DBR) design and development activities spanning fiscal years 2015–2017. Awarded on March 1, 2015, with an ultimate completion date of January 18, 2019, the contract operates under a cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing structure without set-aside designation, reflecting competitive award based on technical capabilities. Performance is centered in Sudbury, Massachusetts. The contract subsequently underwent deobligation, reducing the final commitment value from the original ceiling.
The contract engaged multiple major subcontractors to support the comprehensive radar development effort. International Business Machines Corporation provided extensive computer hardware maintenance and software support services across multiple task orders awarded between 2015 and 2017. Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation contributed repair labor and major assembly support through its Targeting and Survivability Division. Lockheed Martin Corporation provided non-product services related to the DBR program. Additional subcontractor support included Farrell Equipment & Controls, Inc. for specialized valve components. The program reflects NAVSEA's investment in advanced radar capabilities for naval applications, leveraging Raytheon's established expertise in sophisticated electronic systems and radar signal processing technologies.
