ISR/IO Systems Engineering Software Development Test and Evaluation I (ISR-IO)

The Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command established this Master IDIQ for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance systems engineering software development and test and evaluation, with the last date to place orders on November 30, 2011—the vehicle is no longer active for new ordering.

The vehicle issued 367 task orders between August 2005 and November 2011, with ordering momentum declining sharply in the final years: 65 orders in 2007, declining to 38 by 2011. The combined potential value across all task orders is $577.1 million, with $49.4 million obligated—9 percent of the total—indicating most work remained unfunded when the vehicle closed.

Engility LLC dominated the vehicle, capturing 119 orders valued at $401.6 million combined potential value—70 percent of the total. Leidos, Inc. held a distant second with 100 orders and $103.5 million in potential value. Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation and General Dynamics Information Technology each received roughly 50 to 97 orders but with significantly smaller portfolios of $32 million to $40 million.

The Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command placed 287 of 367 task orders (78 percent), worth $506 million in combined potential value. The remaining 80 task orders funded work across 18 other federal agencies, including the Air Force, with minimal concentration.

Task orders operated under Cost Plus Fixed Fee pricing and remained entirely unrestricted—no set-aside designations appeared in the 367 awards. Representative delivery orders in the final year of activity ranged from roughly $25,000 to $1.1 million in ceiling value, with typical durations of 6 to 12 months. The largest recent orders included $1.1 million for Command and Control Rapid Prototype Continuum software engineering, and $687,000 for undisclosed services.

Work concentrated on Maritime domain software—Global Command and Control System-Maritime technical documentation, Tactical Receiver Segment development, and related cryptographic and communications test and evaluation—with additional focus on data collection, integration analysis, and fielding support for Navy platforms.
