About this vehicle
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command awarded the TETRAS II Master IDIQ on June 30, 2023, with a shared ceiling of $999.95 million and ordering authority through June 29, 2028, leaving approximately 23 months of active ordering window. The vehicle remains substantially underutilized: 59 task orders have been issued to date with combined potential value of $220.2 million (22% of the ceiling), and only $79.3 million has been obligated (36% of combined potential value).
Ordering momentum has declined sharply since initial establishment. The vehicle issued 46 task orders in its first year (2023), then dropped to 6 in 2024, 4 in 2025, and 3 in 2026, signaling waning acquisition activity. The scope encompasses test and evaluation technologies for C5ISR systems, munitions, electronic combat and threats, spectrum improvements, and next-generation weapons platforms. Recent awards reflect this breadth: the Naval Surface Warfare Center awarded a telemetry and terminal data collection delivery order with $73.5 million potential value; the Army Threat Systems Management Office received a developmental and operational testing order ceiling of $48.2 million; and wind-tunnel work on F/A-18 captive loads, F-35 models, and hypersonic platforms are underway across multiple awardees.
Competition is fragmented. Intuitive Research And Technology Corporation dominates by potential value with four orders totaling $119.5 million, followed distantly by Raven Defense Corporation at $73.5 million across two orders and Calspan, LLC at $10.4 million across four orders. Forty-six distinct primes have received awards, with 41 holding no more than one order each—typical IDIQ pattern. All 59 task orders carry unrestricted (no set-aside) designation.
Customers are heavily concentrated within Air Force organizations. The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command holds 51 of 59 orders worth $157.4 million combined potential value (71% of vehicle activity), with subsidiary Air Force entities and the Navy Naval Air Systems Command representing the remainder. Task-order values span from $1,000 minimum guarantee awards issued at vehicle establishment through multi-year efforts: firm fixed-price orders under $1 million, cost-plus-fixed-fee orders in the $2 million to $6 million range, and cost-no-fee arrangements at substantially higher ceilings. Place of performance includes Eglin Air Force Base, Florida as the administrative contracting office, with performance distributed across operational test ranges, wind-tunnel facilities, and weapons-development centers.
