Place of performance is Las Cruces, New Mexico, with subordinate performance at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida, for certain technical representative and component support activities.

The originating solicitation, posted July 10, 2018, with responses due July 30, 2018, sought airborne data recorders to support Air Force sustainment and supply operations across multiple aircraft platforms. The contract runs from the award date through September 26, 2028.
