The General Services Administration Federal Acquisition Service issued a Federal Supply Schedule contract to General Dynamics Mission Systems, Inc. on November 9, 2020, with a ceiling value of $1.604 billion and ultimate completion date of November 8, 2030. GDMS, a Scottsdale, Arizona-based subsidiary of General Dynamics Corporation, holds this multiple-award catalog vehicle as a prime contractor competing under full and open procurement without set-aside designations.

The Multiple Award Schedule enables federal agencies to order directly from GDMS's price list across 141 labor categories and a range of secure communications, satellite equipment, and IT infrastructure products. Labor categories span material handling associates at $44.22 per hour through program directors at $309.18 per hour, covering engineering technicians, software engineers, CAD specialists, and IT infrastructure roles with education requirements from high school through bachelor's degree and no security clearance mandates. Product offerings include TACLANE encryptors and VLAN software, Iridium Secure Modules, satellite communications equipment, network management tools, perpetual software licenses, and repair and maintenance services for defense and civilian agencies.

Recent delivery orders under this Schedule reflect broad federal customer base engagement: Naval Sea Systems Command has issued multiple orders for TACLANE software enhancements, ISM2 Iridium modules, and cable kits; the Air Force and Air Force Materiel Command have procured TACLANE licensing, IT management tools, and secure network infrastructure; the Marine Corps, Army, and civilian agencies including FEMA and the Department of Justice have ordered satellite phones, secure modules, and communications equipment. Order values range from under $300 for replacement cables to $400,000 for TACLANE software features (200 units), with firm fixed pricing predominating. Place of performance spans Scottsdale, Arizona (primary manufacturing and fulfillment location), U.S. military installations nationwide, and subordinate locations in Japan and other overseas sites where GDMS delivers equipment and support.

GDMS's core competency centers on command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C4ISR) solutions, satellite communications sustainment, secure tactical communications modernization, and specialized defense electronics. The company holds substantial parallel IDIQ vehicles including a $2.243 billion MUOS Ground Follow-On contract with Space and Missile Systems Center and a $239.3 million Trusted Network Environment Cross Domain Solution program with Air Force Headquarters, positioning it as a critical supplier of defense communications infrastructure across multiple military branches.
