BAE Systems Space & Mission Systems Inc. was awarded a $491.2 million definitive contract by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration on September 10, 2010, for engineering services and development leading to the delivery of the OMPS (Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite) Protoflight Model and support. The contract is structured as a cost-plus award fee arrangement with an ultimate completion date of November 10, 2029, and carries no set-aside designation. Performance will be conducted in Boulder, Colorado. OMPS is a critical Earth observation instrument suite designed to measure atmospheric ozone and aerosol distributions, supporting NOAA's environmental monitoring and weather prediction capabilities. The protoflight model represents a fully functional test unit that validates design and manufacturing processes before commitment to flight hardware production. The contract involves a substantial supply chain of specialized subcontractors providing critical components and services across optical, electronic, mechanical, and thermal disciplines. Key subcontractors include Fivenine Optics (optical coatings and filters), Applied Design Corp (sensor and flight hardware engineering), Zygo Corporation (precision mirrors), Advanced Thin Films/Precision Photonics (optical components), National Instruments Corp (test and measurement systems), Wind River Systems (embedded software), General Dynamics Mission Systems (mission computing and modeling), and numerous specialized suppliers of electronic components, assemblies, and materials. The technical complexity and multi-year duration reflect the sophisticated requirements of developing a space-qualified instrument suite, encompassing design, manufacturing, integration, test, and mission support activities through the instrument's operational deployment and on-orbit performance phase.
