About this opportunity
The Army Contracting Command at Aberdeen Proving Ground has awarded a sole-source extension to Raytheon Company for operations and sustainment support of the Persistent Surveillance and Dissemination System of Systems (PSDS2), effective May 27, 2026.
The justification cites Title 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), grounded in Raytheon's status as the original equipment manufacturer with exclusive ownership of proprietary software and the absence of a viable Technical Data Package. PSDS2 is a Quick Reaction Capability that has provided Full Motion Video surveillance since 2005. The Government asserts that competitive alternatives would impose unacceptable cost, schedule, and operational risk, with replacement timelines estimated at 6.5 to 10 years and potential loss of critical force protection capabilities for deployed service members. The extension covers 118 days of operations and sustainment services from May 30, 2026 through September 25, 2026, under the Defense Logistics Agency IDIQ contract number SPRBL115D0017. The broader requirement encompasses operations, maintenance, logistics, and lifecycle support for PSDS2 systems through 2029 at CONUS and OCONUS locations, including personnel for system operation and maintenance, Field Service Representatives for installation and on-site maintenance, and Imagery Analysts for FMV monitoring and dissemination. The vendor must maintain SIPR Authority to Operate. Place of performance includes CONUS and OCONUS locations where PSDS2 systems are deployed.
Notice text
The Persistent Surveillance and Dissemination System of Systems (PSDS2) is a critical Quick Reaction Capability (QRC) that has been providing Full Motion Video (FMV) capabilities since 2005. PSDS2 functions as a comprehensive system and architecture, receiving video feeds from various sensors and consolidating them in a central location for persistent surveillance, video analysis, dissemination, and long-term archiving.
This request covers Operations and Sustainment (O&S), logistics, and lifecycle support for PSDS2 systems deployed both within the Contiguous United States (CONUS) and Outside the Continental United States (OCONUS) through 2029. This includes personnel for system operation and maintenance in CONUS and OCONUS locations, as well as Field Service Representatives (FSRs) and Operators/Imagery Analysts. The requirement also necessitates the ability to rapidly deliver all necessary items, including digital assets, to designated locations on demand. This support applies to the entire PSDS2 network, encompassing its subsystems, hardware, and software components. The vendor supporting the PSDS2 software must maintain the Secure Internet Protocol Router (SIPR) Authority to Operate (ATO).
a) Hardware, Software, and Firmware Support: Maintenance, updates, and configuration management for the specialized system components.
b) Field Service Representatives (FSRs): Personnel for system installation, deployment, operation, and on-site maintenance in both domestic (CONUS) and international (OCONUS) locations.
c) Imagery Analysts: Specialized operators responsbile for monitoring, processing, exploiting, and disseminating Full Motion Video (FMV) and other intelligence data collected by the sensors.
Awarded contract SPRBL115D0017 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2026-05-27.
