About this award
Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation received a $12.4M delivery order on April 17, 2018, as an Undefinitized Contracting Action (UCA) for interim contractor support on the MS-177 Multi-Spectral Communication Security Solution Program under the RQ-4A/B Global Hawk unmanned aircraft system. The award was issued by the U.S. Air Force's Aeronautical Systems Center (Aeronautical Systems Division) on a cost-plus-fixed-fee basis with an ultimate completion date of October 31, 2020. This contract represents work performed under the broader Global Hawk Major Defense Acquisition Program, which is managed by the Air Force for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance missions utilizing high-altitude, long-endurance unmanned aircraft. The contract was not set aside for any specific business category and was competitively awarded to the program's dominant prime contractor.
Northrop Grumman engaged multiple subcontractors to support contract deliverables, including Goodrich Corporation (UTC Aerospace Systems) for major systems/subsystems and vocational training services; V & T Tooling, Inc., for specialized machined parts, sheet metal details, and extrusions; Valco Inc. for sheet metal components; and Curtiss-Wright Controls Electronic Systems for major systems and subsystems work. Goodrich's involvement reflects the MS-177 sensor system's criticality to Global Hawk capabilities, while the manufacturing subcontractors provided essential aerospace components. The work was performed in San Diego, California, a primary location for Global Hawk system operations, aligning with the program's established infrastructure and supply chain.
