The Defense Microelectronics Activity awarded an indefinite-delivery contract to Raytheon Company on April 1, 2016, with a ceiling value of $17.471 billion, as a multiple-award vehicle supporting the Advanced Technology Support Program IV (ATSP4)—a uniform technical and management approach leveraging advanced technologies to meet Department of Defense requirements for quick-reaction capability across the spectrum of technology development, acquisition, and long-term support.

ATSP4 procures progressive microelectronic capability solutions encompassing studies, analysis, design, software, simulation, fabrication, prototyping, integration, testing, producibility, and limited production of hardware and software. The scope includes development of components for ultra-low volumes, extension of component availability, and assured supply of microelectronics; rapid application of advanced technologies in new applications and performance enhancements to weapons systems; and solutions to electronics support problems including reliability, maintainability, and obsolescence across both state-of-the-practice and legacy technologies.

Place of performance spans multiple Raytheon facilities including El Segundo, California; Tucson, Arizona; Cedar Rapids, Iowa; McKinney, Texas; Marlborough, Massachusetts; Poulsbo, Washington; and Annapolis Junction, Maryland, with work also conducted at customer locations nationwide.

The IDIQ carries an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2026. Recent task-order activity under ATSP4 reflects broad customer engagement across the Department of Defense: the Naval Information Warfare Systems Command issued a $90.679 million order in September 2025 for mobile obsolescence and production readiness solutions in Marlborough, Massachusetts; the Program Executive Office for Missiles and Space issued a $262.997 million order in September 2025 for sense and intercept equipment refinement and delivery in Tucson; the U.S. Cyber Command issued a $14.835 million order in March 2026 for InfiniteVision IV microelectronic capability solutions in Annapolis Junction; and the Defense Information Systems Agency issued a $3.820 million order in March 2026 for UHF gateway modernization in El Segundo. Earlier delivery orders span Naval Air Systems Command (radar upgrades, test training systems), Naval Sea Systems Command (anti-submarine warfare range systems, acoustic countermeasures), Fleet Forces Command (over-the-horizon radar upgrades), Office of Naval Research (radar improvements), Air Force (battle management command and control, weather systems, software development), Air Force Research Laboratory (electromagnetic hardening, thermal hardware, microwave filters), Army (Excalibur guided artillery round modernization, projectile receiver obsolescence resolution), Missile Defense Agency (radar collaboration systems), and U.S. Cyber Command (cybersecurity software upgrades). Most delivery orders employ cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing; several employ firm fixed-price structures. Raytheon, operating through its Hris Corp Division, is a subsidiary of RTX Corporation.

ATSP4 is a uniform technical and management approach that leverages advanced technologies to meet the requirements of the department of defense (DOD) for a quick reaction capability across the entire spectrum of technology development, acquisition, and long-term support. This capability includes the development of appropriate solutions to keep a system operational, elevate sophistication level, or meet new threats. These efforts may include developing components to meet the dods requirements for ultra-low volumes, extending component availability, or ensuring a trusted, assured, and secure supply of microelectronics; also included will be the intelligent and rapid application of advanced technologies in new applications and to add needed performance enhancements to DOD weapon systems in response to traditional and irregular (asymmetric) threats and to the problems related to aging weapon systems. Increasing warfighter capabilities and providing solutions to electronics support problems such as, reliability, maintainability and obsolescence are accomplished through the development and insertion of applications of advanced microelectronics technologies. ATSP4 includes the use of state of the practice and/or legacy technologies to provide solutions. The scope of ATSP4 covers both hardware and software and includes studies, analysis, design, software, simulation, fabrication, prototyping, integration, testing, producibility, and limited production. The scope of ATSP4 also includes the development of viable methods and procedures for using available tools and resources, strategies for resolution of replacement alternatives, and technical interchange in support of task accomplishment.
