About this vehicle

The Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command awarded this Master IDIQ on August 1, 2017, with a shared ceiling of $300 million to develop, acquire, deploy, and sustain IT systems with full lifecycle support. Ordering closed on November 14, 2025, and the vehicle is no longer accepting new orders.

Activity under RaPDS has been sparse and declining. Eight task orders have been awarded since establishment, with front-loaded activity in 2017 (four awards) tapering to one order per year in 2018, 2019, 2021, and 2022; no orders have been awarded in the past three years and eight months. Combined task-order potential value stands at $88.3 million, with $47.9 million obligated to date (54% of combined potential value). The vehicle has obligated less than 30% of its shared ceiling.

Scope centers on Navy IT sustainment and application management. Awarded work includes Department of Defense Information Technology Portfolio Repository (DITPR) and Department of the Navy Application and Database Management System (DADMS) sustainment; Manpower, Personnel, Training and Education (MPT&E) Customer Relationship Management (CRM) integration and sustainment; and related information warfare systems support. All task orders use cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing; most ceilings range from $7 million to $39 million.

Competition is heavily concentrated. Ideamatics, Inc. holds three orders worth $54.9 million combined potential value (62% of the portfolio), while Rite-Solutions, Inc. holds four orders worth $33.4 million (38%). A third firm, Escience & Technology Solutions, Inc., received a single $10 thousand order. All eight task orders fund the same customer agency — the Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command. The set-aside mix is 88% unrestricted (seven orders) and 12% total small business (one order). Nearly all work is cost-plus-fixed-fee, reflecting the sustainment and development character of the program.
