About this IDV
This is a single-award indefinite delivery contract (IDC) awarded by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), a civilian government agency, to Frequentis USA, Inc., a foreign-owned, for-profit manufacturer of communication and information systems. The $477.26 million contract covers the design, development, integration, testing, deployment, and support of the National Airspace System Air/Ground Protocol Converter System (APCS), which will replace voice switching infrastructure at air traffic control facilities nationwide.
The contract has a 10-year period of performance from February 2024 through February 2027. Two related task orders have been awarded to date - a $122.31 million order for production of APC units and APCMS under the Project LIFT program, and a $50 million firm fixed-price order for base period support services and supplies for the APCS. This IDC was competitively awarded without any set-aside designations, indicating Frequentis USA's status as a large business capable of delivering the complex, safety-critical voice communication systems required by the FAA.
