About this IDV
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency awarded The Boeing Company an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract vehicle with a potential value of $300,000 for the SPACE-BACN Program Technical Area 1 effort. Boeing will serve as the prime contractor to deliver products and services in support of the Space-Based Adaptive Communications Node Program. This program aims to develop and demonstrate technologies to enable flexible, resilient, and on-demand communications for government users operating in austere locations. Deliverables under the contract will include research, development, testing, and evaluation of technologies related to adaptive communications payloads and associated ground infrastructure. Performance is expected to take place at Boeing facilities as well as DARPA locations. The contract provides an ordering mechanism for DARPA to issue task orders for specific research tasks over the five year period of performance beginning in December 2021.
The SPACE-BACN Program seeks to enhance beyond-line-of-sight communications for defense users on the move or operating where terrestrial infrastructure may be degraded, damaged or non-existent. Boeing will support DARPA's work in Technical Area 1, which focuses on developing resilient space-based payload technologies. This includes research into flexible payloads that can dynamically adapt their communications modes and coverage areas based on operational needs. The overall program aims to field prototype demonstrations to validate the military utility of adaptive space-based communications augmenting terrestrial networks in austere environments.
