About this award

The Air Force awarded an Other Transaction Agreement to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation, Space Systems Division, on October 27, 2023, for Tranche 2 Transport Layer (T2TL) Alpha, a proliferated warfighter space architecture prototype effort under the Middle Tier of Rapid Prototyping pathway, with a ceiling value of $782,058,154.73 and ultimate completion by July 23, 2032. OTAs sit outside the FAR and grant the Air Force streamlined acquisition authority under 10 U.S.C. § 4022.

Performance occurs at Redondo Beach, California. The agreement funds space architecture prototyping and satellite payload and subsystem development supporting the Air Force's evolving space command infrastructure. Major subcontractors include General Dynamics Mission Systems, which supplies command and control subsystems, and Dow-Key Microwave, which provides RF switches and control components. Regal Technology Partners delivers technical services and hardware assembly support.

Northrop Grumman Space Systems Division competes full-and-open without small business set-asides and holds a concentrated customer relationship with the Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center, with prior OTA awards including T2TL Beta ($735.6 million, completion May 2032) and T3TRK ($790.8 million, completion January 2032). The division's work centers on advanced RF and photonics components, space-based communications infrastructure, and materials-science research, with a portfolio of $27.15 billion across tracked federal awards.
