Tactical Electronic Warfare Division R&D 2013-2016

The Tactical Electronic Warfare Division Research and Development 2013-2016 Master Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract is a comprehensive support vehicle for the Naval Research Laboratory's Tactical Electronic Warfare Division (TEWD). The contract enables technical and engineering support across multiple domains of electronic warfare research and development, with a focus on advanced naval technologies. Contractors provide services including systems engineering, technical analysis, software development, hardware design, prototype fabrication, testing, and integration of electronic warfare systems and related technologies.

The task orders under this IDIQ consistently demonstrate a pattern of cost-plus fixed fee and firm fixed price contracts, predominantly awarded to small businesses like Envisioneering Inc., Praxis Inc., and Assurance Technology Corporation. Most task orders range from approximately $350,000 to $6 million, with performance periods typically spanning 12-24 months. The Office of Naval Research (ONR) is the primary funding agency, with task orders supporting specialized areas such as radar engineering, electronic warfare systems prototyping, signal conditioning, unmanned systems, and naval research initiatives. Frequent technical domains include electronic support measures, integrated topside systems, signal processing, test and evaluation services, and advanced sensor technologies. Many task orders are set aside for total small business participation, reflecting a strategic approach to supporting smaller, specialized technology firms in defense research and development.
