About this IDV

The Aerospace Systems Air Platform Technology Research (ASAPTR) is a $499 million multiple-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract vehicle awarded by the U.S. Air Force on August 11, 2017, with an ultimate completion date of May 11, 2026. Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation, a subsidiary of Northrop Grumman Corporation and part of its Aeronautics Systems Division, serves as one of the prime contractors on this vehicle. The ASAPTR contract supports the Air Force's research and development initiatives for advanced aerospace systems and air platform technologies. Performance of work is conducted primarily at Northrop Grumman facilities in El Segundo, California, with no small business set-aside designation applied, reflecting the contract's competitive open-market structure suitable for large business prime contractors.

The task orders issued under ASAPTR demonstrate a diverse portfolio of aerospace research and development programs utilizing cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing structures. Notable delivery orders include the Great Horned Owl Acoustic Flight Demonstration ($36.6 million), Low Cost Attritable Aircraft Platform Sharing program ($9.8 million), Little Horned Owl initiative ($4.9 million), Enabling Quantification of Uncertainty for Aerospace Technology Evaluation ($2.96 million), Fail-Safe Technologies for Bonded Unitized Composite Structures ($2.33 million), Quantifying Utility of Aerospace Derivatives ($2.78 million), and Planar Optics for More Effective Optical Systems ($1.42 million). These programs encompass technical services, advanced materials research, composite structure development, optical systems enhancement, aircraft platform design and integration, and systems engineering support. Subcontractors on these orders include academic institutions such as Wichita State University, Stanford University, and Georgia Tech, along with specialized aerospace firms including Scaled Composites LLC, Cornerstone Research Group Inc., and various component suppliers, reflecting the technical complexity and research-intensive nature of the underlying air platform technology development initiatives.
