C4I Software Applications and Database I (C4I-SAD)

The Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command awarded a Master IDIQ for software application and database support to Navy C4I programs on September 26, 2006, with ordering authority ending January 23, 2012—a vehicle that has been closed to new orders for over 14 years and is no longer a pursuit opportunity. The successor vehicle, C4I Software Applications and Database II, was awarded April 30, 2012.

During its five-year ordering window, the vehicle generated 92 delivery orders with a combined potential value of $36.4 million, of which $33.8 million (93 percent) has been obligated. Ordering activity peaked in 2008 at 21 orders, with subsequent years averaging 15–20 orders annually through 2011. The most recent task order was awarded September 23, 2011. Task-order ceiling values typically range from $50 thousand to $2.2 million, with most orders structured as cost-plus-fixed-fee. Notable larger orders include a $2.2 million ceiling for Open Track Manager, Consolidated Net-Centric Data Environment, and Command and Control Rapid Prototyping Continuum support (awarded August 2008), and a $1.6 million obligation for unspecified C4I services (September 2007).

Fgm, Inc. and Kratos Technology & Training Solutions, Inc. dominate the competitive landscape, holding 42 and 26 orders respectively and accounting for $25.9 million of the vehicle's $36.4 million combined potential value. Forward Slope Incorporated, Leidos, Inc., and Intelesis Technologies Corp. comprise the remaining competition. The Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command funded approximately 74 percent of all task orders ($26.1 million of $36.4 million potential value), with the Office of the Secretary of Defense, Naval Network Warfare Command, and Naval Sea Systems Command accounting for scattered activity. All 92 orders were awarded under unrestricted competition with no set-aside designations. Work centered on software maintenance, application integration frameworks, and command-and-control system engineering supporting Navy information warfare infrastructure.

The Department of the Navy, Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center, Pacific (SSC Pacific) has awarded a Master IDIQ for software application and database support for SSC Pacific Command, Control, Communications, Computers, and Intelligence (C41) programs.
