The Department of the Air Force Space Command awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to Raytheon Company Missile Defense Business Center Division, a subsidiary of RTX Corporation, for the Solid State Modules Replacement (SSM-R) program. The contract has a ceiling value of $494,921,934 and a period of performance through December 20, 2020. Under this IDC, Raytheon will provide replacement solid state modules to support the Air Force's radar systems, with an initial $48.9 million delivery order for work to be performed in Woburn, Massachusetts.
This IDC was awarded competitively with no set-aside designations, reflecting Raytheon's status as a large defense contractor. The original solicitation was a pre-solicitation notice for the planned replacement of aging mission computer architecture and interfacing hardware for the Air Force's AN/FPS-108 COBRA DANE radar system. The objective appears to be upgrading critical IT infrastructure to maintain the radar system's mission capabilities, though further program details were not disclosed at the pre-solicitation stage.
