This Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA), awarded on January 14, 2026, by the Army Contracting Command at Redstone Arsenal to Neros, Inc., establishes a multiple-award indefinite delivery vehicle for the procurement of drones and drone components in support of Executive Order 14307—Unleashing American Drone Dominance. The agreement runs through January 12, 2031, with no set-aside designation applied. Neros, Inc., a small business defense technology manufacturer headquartered in El Segundo, California, will provide unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) and associated components to the funding agency, the Program Executive Office Aviation (PEO Aviation), which operates under the Department of Defense. The BOA establishes a framework for task order issuance on an as-needed basis, enabling the Army to procure Blue List compliant unmanned systems without requiring full and open competition for individual orders, thereby streamlining acquisition timelines for operational requirements.

Neros' delivery scope encompasses advanced unmanned systems including First Person View (FPV) equipped aircraft, Group 1 quadrotor platforms with modular payload capabilities, the Neros Archer UAS with FPV functionality, custom command-and-control link systems, ground control systems, and communication technologies designed for electromagnetically challenging environments. The contractor brings substantial expertise in prototype development, systems integration, and the delivery of operationally flexible UAS platforms tailored to special operations and tactical applications. Neros maintains an established portfolio of prior federal defense awards totaling approximately $4.9 million across multiple branches of the military and specialized commands, including the Air Force, Air Force Research Laboratory, Air Force Special Operations Command, Naval Special Warfare Command, and United States Special Operations Command. This BOA positions Neros as a strategic supplier for the Army's unmanned systems procurement needs, leveraging demonstrated technical capabilities in interoperable UAS platforms that meet Department of Defense standards and allowing for rapid response to Army operational requirements with pricing certainty throughout the performance period.
