BAE Systems Information & Electronic Systems Integration Inc.

BAE Systems Information & Electronic Systems Integration Inc., doing business as Data Systems International Inc., is a subsidiary of BAE Systems PLC that operates as a prime contractor (76% of recent awards) and subcontractor on defense and space research, development, and engineering programs, with no SBA set-aside designations and a customer base anchored by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency and the Air Force Research Laboratory.

The vendor's capability portfolio centers on space vehicle manufacturing, satellite communications systems, electronic component design, and defense research and development. Prime work includes a $15.95 million cooperative agreement with the Air Force Research Laboratory awarded July 2026 for a 45NM requalification process under the Defense Production Act Title III program (CFDA 12.777), running through October 2029, and a $542 thousand definitive contract with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration awarded October 2022 for a 3D winds study based on the MISTIC Winds hyperspectral advanced meteorological variable constellation concept in support of a Broad Agency Announcement. As a subcontractor, the vendor delivers satellite payload development, systems engineering sustainment, and component engineering to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation on evolved strategic satellite communications programs and next-generation overhead persistent infrared polar space vehicle studies, to Lockheed Martin Corporation on NASA's DaVinci+ mission phase A and phase B concept studies, protected extremely high frequency satellite communications sustainment, and global positioning system III follow-on space vehicles, and to The Boeing Company on wideband global satellite communications technology development.

Customer concentration is extreme and agency-specific. The Defense Threat Reduction Agency anchors 16 awards worth $153.1 million combined potential value — 44% of the vendor's total $350.7 million portfolio — through an indefinite delivery contract (DTRA0103D0007) with 17 task orders. The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Research Laboratory contributes 11 awards for $25 million, and NASA's Shared Services Center, Langley Research Center, and Ames Research Center together account for $32.7 million across 10 awards. The top five customer agencies account for 69% of awards by count and 60% of combined potential value. The vendor serves 19 distinct customer agencies total, but work is heavily weighted to defense research and space vehicle programs at DoD and NASA.

Activity has grown from two awards in 2022 to seven in 2024, then declined to five in 2025 and one in 2026 (the July 2026 Air Force cooperative agreement). Only one award carries an ultimate completion date within the next twenty-four months ($21.6 million combined potential value), limiting near-term recompete exposure. The vendor's subcontractor footprint is predominantly with Northrop Grumman and Lockheed Martin on satellite, space vehicle, and guided-missile programs; across recent sub work, BAE Systems Information & Electronic Systems Integration Inc. supplies electronic components, subsystem engineering, and technical services rather than prime systems integration.

SCI-reported invoiced revenue on federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold totaled $524 thousand across FY2023–FY2024 (FY2023: $407 thousand; FY2024: $118 thousand), with roughly 0.6 FTEs in FY2023 declining to 0.1 FTEs in FY2024 across prime service contract records. On the contracts captured in SCI, median government-paid rates ran around $402/hr, with senior labor pricing through $476/hr. SCI data reflects a small subset of the vendor's federal activity — the majority of awards in the source are fixed-price R&D contracts and cooperative agreements not captured in SCI reporting, and the vendor's total enterprise revenue far exceeds SCI-reportable amounts.
