The Air Force has awarded Essentium Inc., doing business as Essentium Materials, an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with a ceiling value of $975 million. The contract, known as the Rapid Sustainment Directorate Multi-Award Contract (RO MAC), is intended to support the Air Force Rapid Sustainment Office's mission of optimizing warfighter readiness through the use of mature and emerging technologies.
Essentium, a self-certified small disadvantaged business and manufacturer of industrial 3D printers and materials, will provide a range of products and services under the RO MAC contract, including 3D printing hardware, materials, accessories, installation, training, and related research and development. The contract has both unrestricted and partial small business set-aside pools, allowing Essentium to compete in both. Previous contracts awarded to Essentium by the Air Force, Army, and Navy demonstrate the company's capability to support the government's additive manufacturing needs across multiple applications. The RO MAC contract will enable the Air Force to rapidly deploy innovative sustainment-related technologies, methodologies, and concepts to improve readiness and warfighter capabilities.
