The Department of the Army's Program Executive Office (PEO) Soldier awarded a $518 million multiple award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to Ultralife Corporation for the provision of conformal wearable batteries (CWB) to meet soldier power requirements. This master IDC contract was originally solicited in 2019 through a pre-solicitation notice seeking up to 200,000 flexible, durable, and low-temperature chargeable CWBs. Under this IDC, Ultralife has received a $358,807 firm fixed price delivery order to provide CWB First Article Test (FAT) systems through December 2023. The CWB IDC and associated task orders fall under the purview of the PEO Soldier program, which oversees soldier modernization efforts, including the provision of advanced power solutions. Ultralife is a manufacturer of batteries and power solutions based in Newark, New York that has extensive experience as a prime contractor to the Department of Defense, particularly through the Defense Logistics Agency. This IDC and related delivery orders enable the continued supply of CWBs and other portable energy components to meet the Army's soldier power requirements.
