This is a $12,153,951.00 cost-plus-fixed-fee contract awarded by the Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command to Systems & Technology Research LLC (STR), a mid-tier technology company. The contract supports the DARPA ASCOT research program, which seeks to advance capabilities in naval surface warfare, electronic warfare, battlespace surveillance, target detection, identification, and geolocation.
As the prime contractor, STR will perform the base phase of the ASCOT effort, with two major subcontractors: KBR Wyle Services, LLC (doing business as IAI LLC) and L3Harris Technologies, Inc. The subcontractors will provide technical support in areas like data fusion, modeling and simulation, and electronic support for the program. There was no set-aside designation used for this award.
The ASCOT contract appears to be part of a broader portfolio of DARPA, Department of the Air Force, and Office of the Secretary of Defense research and development contracts held by STR focused on advancing technologies like artificial intelligence, wireless communications, electronic warfare, and other mission-critical capabilities for defense and intelligence agencies.
