About this opportunity

The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command has issued a Sole Source Justification Notice for increasing the Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) N00164-21-G-WS31 with Raytheon Company by $42 million, raising the total ceiling from $57 million to $99 million. The contract is for the AN/ALQ-249(V)1 Next Generation Jammer - Mid-Band (NGJ-MB) program, which will replace electronic attack jamming pods on EA-18G Growler Aircraft with enhanced capabilities against adversary Integrated Air Defense Systems. Raytheon was selected as the sole source provider based on their unique capabilities, including previous successful contract phases totaling $1.381 billion and their specialized expertise in this technology. The increased funding will support Engineering Services, Test Equipment, Prime Mission Equipment for Laboratory Use, Spares, and Fleet Support Representative Support through October 2026. An analysis indicates that using an alternative vendor would result in an estimated minimum of $376 million in duplicative costs and significant program delays, further justifying the sole source selection. A synopsis posted on SAM.gov in June 2024 received no alternative responses, reinforcing Raytheon's position as the most qualified contractor for this critical defense technology.
