The U.S. Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC) has awarded a single-award, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract valued up to $3.86 billion to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation's Strategic Deterrent Systems division. The contract, known as the Ground Subsystem Support Contract (GSSC) 2.0, provides for sustainment and engineering services for intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) ground subsystems through 2039. This supports the U.S. nuclear deterrent capabilities, including the Minuteman III ICBM system, Strategic Automated Command and Control System (SACCS), and Airborne Launch Control System (ALCS).
Under the GSSC 2.0 IDIQ, multiple delivery orders have been issued to Northrop Grumman, totaling over $200 million to date. These task orders cover a wide range of support activities such as general sustainment, engineering services for trainer systems, and specific subsystem support like the SACCS and ALCS. The work is primarily performed at Hill Air Force Base in Utah. Northrop Grumman collaborates with major subcontractors like Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and General Dynamics to deliver the required hardware, software, test equipment, and technical expertise. This contract does not utilize any small business set-aside designations.
