About this IDV

Frontgrade Technologies Inc., operating as Cobham Integrated Electronic Solutions, holds a multiple-award indefinite delivery contract valued at $6.05 million with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), awarded on March 9, 2020, with an ultimate completion date of September 15, 2025. The contract scope encompasses rotary coupler refurbishment services supporting critical FAA infrastructure systems, including the Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR), Airport Surface Detection Equipment-3 (ASDE-3), Airport Surveillance Radar-9 (ASR-9), Mode-S Broadcast-Only Standard (MODE-S BOS), National Airspace System ASR-11, Air Route Surveillance Radar-1 (ARSR-1), ARSR-2, and Frequency Patrol System (FPS). The contract establishes a one-year base period with four one-year option periods and requires the contractor to demonstrate advanced manufacturing and test capabilities with 180-day turnaround timelines and five-year warranties on repaired units. All work is performed at the contractor's facility in Exeter, New Hampshire, with no small business set-aside designation applied. The contract represents a comprehensive vehicle for maintaining radar and electronic surveillance equipment essential to the National Airspace System's operational continuity.

Since contract inception, the FAA has issued 22 firm fixed-price delivery orders totaling approximately $851,000, with individual task order values ranging from approximately $9,600 to $73,600. These delivery orders, all designated as "Assets in Support of the NAS," procure electronic components, assemblies, and refurbishment services necessary for radar system maintenance and modernization initiatives. Completion dates for individual delivery orders have ranged from 2020 through 2025, with performance consistently executed at the Exeter, New Hampshire facility. The contractor's specialized expertise in radio frequency, microwave, and millimeter-wave equipment, combined with its subcontract support to major defense integrators and prime contractor relationships with multiple federal agencies including the Department of Defense and Naval Supply Systems Command, positions Frontgrade Technologies to fulfill the FAA's requirements for sophisticated electronic component sourcing and repair services critical to safe and efficient national airspace management.
