About this opportunity
The Naval Air Warfare Center intends to award a sole-source IDIQ contract (N6893626D5007) to Collins Aerospace for Global Positioning System proprietary instrumentation and equipment support, with a total estimated value of $249 million over five fiscal years (2026–2031).
The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), citing substantial cost duplication if awarded to another source. Collins Aerospace is the original designer, developer, and manufacturer of the GPS-related systems covered under the contract, including the Common Range Integrated Instrumentation System (CRIIS), Tactical Combat Training System (TCTS II), P6, and Air-to-Air Range Infrastructure 2nd Generation (AARI-2) systems. The Government determined that developing new specifications and competitively awarding to another source would cost an estimated $700 million based on original development costs. Market research efforts included a Sources Sought announcement posted November 27, 2024, and a SAM.gov synopsis posted September 4, 2025. One competitor expressed interest but failed to submit credible capability statements before closing dates.
The contract provides continued sustainment and development of Collins Aerospace proprietary GPS-related system software and hardware, prototype and production hardware, software updates for test asset systems, and replacement subsystems parts for Army, Navy, and Air Force GPS sensor systems infrastructure. The contract supports the Tri-Service GPS Sustainment Management Office. Place of performance is China Lake, California. Performance spans five years with deliverables comprising Test and Training range instrumentation systems, data collection and processing systems, host range interface equipment, and testing and troubleshooting hardware.
