Range IDIQ Support Effort (RISE)

Air Force Materiel Command awarded the Range IDIQ Support Effort (RISE), a multiple-award supply IDIQ for threat radar systems, prototypes, engineering analysis, and hardware/software upgrades supporting Air Force Combat Training Ranges, with ordering closed on June 22, 2026. The vehicle is no longer active; the last date to place orders has passed.

The vehicle was established June 23, 2021, with a shared ceiling of $950 million across a five-year period. Twenty distinct prime contractors hold awards. The portfolio comprises 25 task orders totaling $11.1 million in combined potential value, with $10.3 million (93 percent) already obligated. Ordering activity was heavily front-loaded: 20 orders in the award year (2021), followed by 1 order in 2022, 2 in 2023, and 2 in 2025. The most recent task order was awarded July 1, 2025.

Scientific Research Corporation leads by potential value at $5.5 million across 2 orders. Amentum Services, Inc. follows with 3 orders totaling $3.6 million, and DRS Training & Control Systems, LLC holds 2 orders worth $1.3 million. These three firms account for roughly 99 percent of combined potential value; the remaining 17 primes split the balance.

Orders funded Air Force programs almost entirely: 24 orders through Department of the Air Force Materiel Command ($8.3 million combined potential value) and 1 order through the Lifecycle Management Center at Hill Air Force Base ($2.9 million). All 25 orders carried no set-aside designation.

Task orders range from minimum guarantees of $5 thousand (16 orders issued June 23, 2021, requesting whitepaper solutions for a prime-integrated-portal concept) to major awards such as FA821021D0017-FA821021F0021 for Band-Simulator range threat systems, digital threat control shelter, and spares kits at $5.539 million (obligated June 10, 2022). Recent orders focus on spares and technical data packages: closed-loop PESA simulator spares ($693 thousand, July 2025), CLPS and AATS spares ($2.867 million, June 2025), and unmanned threat emitter communication box technical data package ($697 thousand, obligated through May 2026).

The Range IDIQ Support Effort (RISE) is a five year multi-award supply IDIQ that will support the Range Threat Systems Branch (including Advanced Radar Threat Systems (ARTS-V1, ARTS-V2, AN/TPQ-55, ARTS-V3, ARTS-V4), Joint Threat Emitter (JTE, AN/TSQ-T10, AN/FSQ-T34) and Branch Modernization programs(Band Sim, AN/MPS-T1, Mini-MUTES, AN/MST-T1(V), AN/MST-T1(V), AN/MST-T1(V), MTE, AN/MSQ-T43, MUTES, AN/MST-T1A, TRTG, AN/VPQ-1, UMTE, AN/TPT-T1(V)). This entails threat radar systems, along with supporting tools and infrastructure to the US Air Force's Combat Training Ranges. Support includes, but is not limited to, the acquisition of threat radars, prototypes, engineering analysis, and hardware/software upgrades.
