About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force has awarded a sole-source bridge contract to Stellar Solutions, Inc. for specialized technical and systems engineering support for the Overhead Persistent Infrared (OPIR) Missile Warning and Missile Tracking program under Space Systems Command, with an estimated value of $33.8 million.
The justification invokes GSAR 538.7104-3(b)(1)(i), unusual urgency. The current contract expires June 9, 2026, while the planned competitive follow-on procurement (STS-4) is not expected to award until the end of calendar year 2026. Stellar Solutions is identified as the only team with the requisite expertise, specialized knowledge, Organization Conflict of Interest compliance, and necessary Non-Disclosure Agreements in place to support mission-critical functions without unacceptable delays to Initial Launch Capability milestones and payload tasking. The services include technical and systems engineering for Wide Field of View operations and integration, Next Generation GEO System of Systems Integration, MEO Track Custody acquisitions, and Boulder Ground Innovation Facility operational continuity. The bridge contract facilitates transition and knowledge transfer to incoming contractors (BOSS and GMI) while maintaining continuity during overlapping program transitions and government personnel changes. The underlying GSA contract vehicle is 47QRAA18D00FQ, with delivery order FA8810-26-F-B003 awarded on June 4, 2026. NAICS 541715; PSC AC33.
