About this IDV
The Department of the Air Force awarded multiple indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contracts under the Skyborg Prototyping, Experimentation and Autonomy Development program with a potential total value of four hundred million United States dollars ($400,000,000). The objective of this program is to accelerate the development and fielding of autonomous capabilities for unmanned aircraft systems to provide expeditionary combat capabilities.
General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. received task orders against the master IDIQ valued at approximately sixteen million one hundred eight thousand six hundred fifty United States dollars ($16,108,650) for the Skyborg Experimental Host-Aircraft program. This cost plus fixed fee task order involves prototyping and experimentation to develop autonomous capabilities and will be performed in Poway, California over a two-year period. Additionally, General Atomics received a firm fixed price task order valued at three thousand nine hundred ninety-four United States dollars ($3,994) to support an initial kickoff meeting for the program. Both task orders were awarded by the Department of the Air Force with no set-aside designation specified.
The originating Broad Agency Announcement sought proposals to establish the multiple IDIQ contracts for advancing autonomous systems technologies through prototyping, testing, and evaluation through 2025. The long-term goal is to field an affordable autonomous mission system under the Skyborg program.
