SSC LANT Electronic Security Systems I (ESS)

The Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command established this Master IDIQ for Integrated Electronic Security System (IESS) life-cycle support on May 26, 2010, with a final ordering deadline of November 25, 2015. The vehicle is no longer active for new orders, having closed more than ten years ago.

The IDIQ awarded 250 task orders over its active period, with combined potential value of $39.3 million, of which $38.5 million (98%) has been obligated. Ordering activity peaked early, declining sharply from 89 orders in 2011 to just 3 by 2015, reflecting the wind-down of the vehicle's lifecycle. The most recent task order award occurred on May 22, 2015.

Work contracted under the vehicle centers on physical and cyber security infrastructure at naval and military installations across the United States. Task orders cover survey, design, procurement, installation, testing, and turnover support for intrusion detection systems (IDS), automated access control systems (AACS), closed-circuit television (CCTV), and related components. Recent deliveries include IESS sustainment at Joint Base Charleston Naval Weapons Station, Nuclear Power Training Unit Charleston, Defense Supply Center Columbus, and systems administration at NSWC Carderock. A notable order executed an IDS and AACS installation project at MCB Camp Pendleton with a ceiling of $31 thousand.

Two small-business prime contractors dominate the vehicle: Systems Applications And Solutions, L.L.C. holds 143 orders worth $26.7 million combined potential value, and Mandex Inc. holds 107 orders worth $12.5 million. These two firms account for 100% of awarded task orders. Approximately 98% of orders carry small-business set-asides, with only 4 of 250 orders awarded unrestricted.

The Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command placed 179 orders (71% of total) worth $31 million potential value. The United States Marine Corps placed 55 orders worth $6.2 million. The remaining nine customer agencies, including Defense Logistics Agency Distribution, Naval Air Systems Command, and Naval Sea Systems Command, account for 3% of orders. Work is performed nationwide at military installations including Kings Bay, Panama City, Norfolk, and Marine Corps bases.
