About this award
BAE Systems Information and Electronic Systems Integration Inc. was awarded a delivery order valued at $69.04 million on November 1, 2020, under the BIG SAFARI program, a highly classified Air Force special access initiative focused on rapid development and deployment of advanced reconnaissance and surveillance systems. This firm fixed-price delivery order, which extends through December 31, 2025, will be performed in Nashua, New Hampshire, where BAE Systems maintains significant operational capabilities. The award was made without a small business set-aside designation, reflecting BAE Systems' status as a large business competing in the unrestricted federal marketplace. The Aeronautical Systems Center, located at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and responsible for managing a diverse portfolio of aerospace programs, served as the contracting agency. BIG SAFARI represents one of the Air Force's most significant special access programs, and BAE Systems has received substantial recognition within this initiative, with multiple delivery orders totaling hundreds of millions of dollars across its program history.
The contract was supported by a robust network of subcontractors providing specialized capabilities across electronic systems, aviation support, software licensing, and engineering services. Major subcontractors included Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation, which provided contractor logistics support and consumable materials for C-20 and C-37 aircraft variants; L3Harris Technologies Integrated Systems L.P., which delivered EC-37B mobile repair station certification and engineering services; and Raytheon Company, which provided advanced communications systems engineering support. Additional subcontractors supplied critical enabling technologies including software solutions from vendors such as DLT Solutions, Carahsoft Technology Corp, CDW Government LLC, and Insight Public Sector Inc., along with specialized technical services from firms including Digital Receiver Technology, CACI Federal, Rincon Research Corporation, and Textron Systems Corporation. This layered subcontracting structure reflects the complex, multi-disciplinary nature of advanced reconnaissance and surveillance system development and sustainment within the BIG SAFARI program.
