Support Systems Associates, Inc.
Support Systems Associates, Inc., doing business as Ssai, is a for-profit small business manufacturer and service provider specializing in aviation components, communications systems, and automated test equipment for the U.S. Department of Defense. Based in Melbourne, Florida, Ssai has been registered in SAM.gov since 2001 and operates as a Subchapter S Corporation. The company's primary focus is on providing sustainment, modification, and repair services for military aircraft, particularly supporting special operations and strategic bomber platforms. Ssai's expertise lies in maintaining and upgrading critical systems that ensure the operational readiness of various aircraft used by the U.S. military.
Ssai has been awarded numerous contracts by the Air Force Sustainment Center to repair subassemblies for the B-1B Automated Test Systems (ATS) equipment components. These firm-fixed-price contracts, typically ranging from $100,000 to $5 million, involve maintenance and repair of critical testing equipment used to ensure the operational readiness of the B-1B Lancer bomber fleet. The company has also received contracts from the Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex to provide MCJ Commando II SMS Super Kits and other aviation-related products for special operations aircraft. In these efforts, Ssai has collaborated with subcontractors such as Bisco Industries, Unified Defense Holdings, and GE Aviation Systems to deliver electronic components and specialized hardware. As a subcontractor, Ssai has supported prime contractors like Southwest Research Institute in providing engineering and analysis activities for aging aircraft structures, including C-5 aircraft support.
Ssai currently holds three significant indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicles. The first is a single-award IDIQ with the Air Force Sustainment Center, valued at $2.55 million, for B-1B ATS repair services through June 2025. The second is a position on the Naval Air Systems Command's $6.1 billion Kits, Recovery, Augmentation, Components and Engines (KRACEn) multiple-award IDIQ, set aside for small businesses, which runs through April 2030. This contract positions Ssai to compete for a wide range of naval aviation sustainment tasks, although minimal work has been awarded under KRACEn to date. Lastly, Ssai is one of multiple awardees on a $996 million IDIQ for Sustainment Support for Special Operations Forces Recovery and Rotary Managed Aircraft, awarded by the Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex. This contract, running through October 2026, enables Ssai to bid on task orders for modifying and sustaining fixed-wing and rotary aircraft used in special operations and personnel recovery missions. These IDVs collectively demonstrate Ssai's capability to provide comprehensive support across various military aviation platforms and systems.
