The U.S. Navy's Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to Trandes Corp., a woman-owned small business, to provide a broad range of engineering, technical, and programmatic support services. The five-year, $500 base IDC contract, with an option for an additional five years, was issued under the SeaPort-NxG multiple-award IDIQ vehicle. It allows Trandes to compete for future task orders in areas such as aviation systems, shipboard communications, radar systems, air traffic control, and tactical air navigation equipment. The initial task order is a firm-fixed-price delivery order to provide minimum obligation services. Trandes has substantial experience supporting the Navy's maritime operations and information warfare initiatives, including previous IDC awards such as a $63.8 million TACAN and air traffic control contract and a $249.7 million contract for ISR systems development and engineering services.
The original SeaPort-NxG solicitation, released by NAVSEA in 2018, sought proposals from contractors to provide a wide range of engineering, technical, and programmatic support services to the Department of the Navy across 23 functional areas. The competition resulted in multiple-award IDIQ contracts, allowing the Navy to rapidly acquire these services through individual task orders, without the need for additional full and open competitions. The procurement utilized the 541330 NAICS code for professional, scientific, and technical services, with a small business size standard of $38.5 million in average annual revenue.
