The federal contract IDV award is a $95 million Other Transaction Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) issued by the Air Force Materiel Command Aeronautical Systems Center to Sossec, Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business. The IDV, known as the Propulsion Consortium Initiative 2.0, serves as an umbrella agreement enabling Sossec to manage a decentralized consortium of organizations that provide research, engineering, prototyping, testing, production, and sustainment services. This contract supports the Department of the Air Force's research and development, experimentation, and sustainment missions, with a particular focus on propulsion technology initiatives. Task orders under this IDV have ranged from large-scale prototype development projects valued at tens of millions of dollars to smaller administrative tasks like consortium meetings, demonstrating the flexibility and comprehensive nature of the agreement.
The contract allows Sossec to coordinate partnerships with multiple organizations and rapidly execute complex technical projects across various defense technology domains, including communications systems, propulsion technologies, cyber operations, and advanced engineering solutions. Notable task orders include using agile practices to design, develop, and demonstrate reliability and cost models for reliability-centered maintenance applications in a cloud environment, as well as a kickoff meeting for the Propulsion Consortium Initiative 2.0. None of the contract awards were set-aside, indicating Sossec competes broadly in the federal marketplace and frequently collaborates with subcontractors.
