Indefinite Delivery Contract N0017819D7101

The Naval Sea Systems Command awarded a multiple-award indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract to Altron, Inc., a woman-owned small business based in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, under the Seaport Next Generation (Seaport-NXG) program. The contract, valued at $500 with a completion date of January 1, 2029, was awarded on January 2, 2019, with no small business set-aside applied. Altron was selected to provide engineering, technical, and programmatic support services to the Department of the Navy across one of twenty-three defined functional areas. The contract requires performance in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, and operates under a firm fixed-price pricing structure for task order execution. The Seaport-NXG program is designed to consolidate and modernize the Navy's acquisition of professional, scientific, and technical services (NAICS 541330) previously fragmented across the incumbent Seaport-e contracts, which involved over 3,000 prime contractors.

The underlying solicitation, posted in February 2018, specified that awardees must demonstrate relevant experience within the past five years in designated functional areas supporting the Navy's operations. The contract structure includes a five-year base ordering period with an optional five-year extension, with task order work distributed across seven geographic zones aligned with Navy ordering office locations. Altron's selection reflects its established expertise in advanced technology and engineering services, particularly in research and development domains including infrared sensors, autonomous systems, and cybersecurity—capabilities directly applicable to Naval Sea Systems Command requirements. As a firm with significant prior success under Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Technology Transfer programs and experience with major defense initiatives, Altron is positioned to deliver specialized technical support throughout the contract's performance period.
