About this opportunity
The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to extend the ordering period and increase the value of an existing Radar Development Contract (RDC) with the Raytheon Company. This is a sole-source contract modification being pursued under 10 U.S.C. 3204(b)(B), which allows for non-competitive procurement when only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements. The notice, posted on March 9, 2026, pertains to radar equipment manufacturing under NAICS code 334511 and PSC code 5840. The contracting office is located in Huntsville, Alabama, and inquiries should be directed to Contracting Officer Erica Barbee via email. This Special Notice is not a competitive solicitation and does not constitute a request for proposals from other contractors.
The purpose of this contract modification is to extend the AN/TPY-2 radar development program by an additional three years through October 31, 2030, while increasing the maximum contract value by $773.5 million for a new total of $2.246 billion. These funds will support the continued development, deployment, and sustainment of the Forward-Based Missile Defense System, including spares replenishment and ongoing AN/TPY-2 radar enhancements. All interested parties must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) prior to submitting any information, though the government will not compensate respondents for submissions made to this notice. While this notice is not open to competitive bidding, any information received may be considered to enhance competition in future procurements related to this program. Interested parties should direct written questions only to the contracting officer, as telephone inquiries will not be accepted.
