About this opportunity
This Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice from the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers concerns an eight-year indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract with Radiant Mission Solutions, Inc. for continued engineering, deployment, operations and maintenance, information assurance, and integration support services for the Remote Ground Terminal system.

The estimated contract value is $49 million under contract number W5J9CQ20D0006, awarded on August 4, 2020.
Notice text
Radiant is the sole designer, developer, manufacturer, and prime integrator of the RGT Prototype system which includes proprietary data and intellectual property exclusively owned by Radiant. The RGT was originally contracted with MDA Information Systems, to develop ground station software for commercial imagery providers to allow direct access and processing of satellite data. These imagery providers included MacDonald, Dettwiler, and Associates, the operator of the RADARsat satellites, DigitalGlobe, the operator of the WorldView Satellites and GeoEye, the operator of the GeoEye satellites, as well as several other smaller companies. Since then, all of these companies have either merged with, been acquired, or reorganized into Radiant. Due to these consolidations of imagery providers, Radiant is now the only vendor capable of performing RGT services; developing software capable of making the RGT operational; and integrating commercial data to provide a functional system for military application.
Awarded contract W5J9CQ20D0006 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2020-08-04.
