About this vehicle
The Department of the Army Materiel Command Aviation and Missile Command awarded this Master IDIQ on August 14, 2012, with ordering authority that closed on August 13, 2017—this vehicle is no longer active. The ordering window ended nearly nine years ago, making it unsuitable for new pursuit.
For context, the vehicle established four prime contractors across 26 task orders valued at $49.5 million in combined potential, with $49 million obligated (99% drawn). Madison Research Corporation and Analytical Services, Inc., captured the bulk of value: Madison held 7 orders worth $26.6 million combined potential, while Analytical Services held 14 orders worth $21.8 million combined potential. Griffon Aerospace, Inc., and The Boeing Company held the remainder. Activity peaked in 2014 and 2015 (7 awards per year) before dropping to 2 orders in 2016 and 4 in 2017, the final year.
Work procured included aerial target systems, hardware, and services: high-speed aerial targets, towing services via Learjet, subject-matter expert hours for next-generation target programs, command-and-control shelters, radar altimeters and transponder assemblies, and repair and replacement parts. Representative orders ranged from $121 thousand (GQM-163 technical site survey) to $14.8 million (20 high-speed aerial targets). The vehicle also supported Norwegian High Diver target demonstrations and Navy target flight operations.
Two customer agencies funded the work: Aviation and Missile Command placed 21 orders worth $31.3 million combined potential (the sponsoring command), while the Department of the Army Acquisition Support Center PEO Simulation, Training and Instrumentation placed 5 orders worth $18.3 million combined potential. No set-aside designations applied across all 26 orders.
Two successors replaced this vehicle: Ariel Target Systems 2 (awarded May 22, 2018) and Army Targetry Systems III (awarded March 14, 2018). Prospective vendors should pursue work under those successor vehicles instead.
