About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Space Command awarded a Fixed Price Incentive Firm contract to The Boeing Company on February 2, 2024 for $65,941,265.00. This contract is for Mobile User Objective System Service Life Extension Phase 1, which involves early design work to extend the service life of the MUOS satellite communication system. An FPIF structure was selected over fixed price due to concerns that a fixed price approach may incentivize minimal effort and low bids to maximize profits for the Phase 1 early design work.
Notice text
This action is a Fixed Price Incentive Firm and awarded competitively.
An FFP contract was contemplated; however, there was concern that an FFP structure may incentivize a contractor to expend as little as possible to maximize their profit on the Phase 1 early design contract. Additionally, an FFP structure provides incentives for offerors to bid low in order to win. The FPIF structure discourages low bids and encourages offerors to compete by proposing as much early design maturity as they can deliver within the program funding.
Awarded contract FA880724CB002 to THE BOEING COMPANY for 65941265.00 on 2024-02-02.
