The contract utilizes multiple pricing structures including firm fixed-price, time-and-materials, labor-hours, and cost-plus-fixed-fee arrangements depending on the specific requirements of individual delivery orders. Subcontractors engaged on various task orders include Creation Technologies Idaho Inc., Zeido Technologies LLC (Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business), Thales Defense & Security Inc., and multiple specialized communications equipment suppliers, reflecting the technical complexity and integration requirements inherent to military satellite communications and tactical data link infrastructure.
