BAE Systems Information & Electronic Systems Integration Inc.

BAE Systems Information & Electronic Systems Integration Inc., doing business as BAE Systems Occupational Health Center, is a subsidiary of BAE Systems PLC headquartered in Merrimack, New Hampshire that operates as a prime contractor (96% of recent awards) on defense research and advanced electronic systems development for federal agencies, competing exclusively in full-and-open procurements with no set-asides.

The vendor's federal footprint centers on advanced research, development, and systems integration work in electronic warfare, sensing systems, materials science, artificial intelligence, and microelectronics. Representative prime work includes a $90.9 million cost-plus-fixed-fee contract with Naval Information Warfare Systems Command for the DARPA JANUS Program (adaptive warfighting architectures across sensing, communications, and battle management systems), a $59.6 million Army Research Development and Engineering Command Other Transaction Agreement for radiation-hardened design enablement in state-of-the-art technologies, a $53.5 million Air Education and Training Command contract for lead integrator services, and a $49.8 million Air Force definitive contract for the Seeker Cost Transformation program. Recent work also includes a $5.48 million DARPA Other Transaction Agreement for the Anticipatory and Adaptive Anti-Money Laundering (A3ML) Program and a $3.89 million DARPA definitive contract for Securing Artificial Intelligence for Battlefield Effective Robustness, both awarded in early 2026.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward defense research and development agencies. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency leads the portfolio with 46 awards valued at $542.3 million combined potential value, followed by the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Research Laboratory (32 awards, $311 million), the Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command (10 awards, $171.2 million), the Department of the Army Materiel Command Research Development and Engineering Command (3 awards, $73.6 million), and the Department of the Air Force (4 awards, $62.7 million). These five agencies account for 82% of combined potential value across 95 awards. The vendor also holds work with NASA Ames Research Center, the Air Force Research Laboratory, the Office of Naval Research, and Naval Supply Systems Command, across 18 distinct federal customer agencies.

The vendor holds multiple IDIQs and Other Transaction Agreement vehicles. A $25 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Air Force for the Seeker for Agile Guidance Experimentation (SAGE) program extends through August 26, 2029 and has generated a $16.7 million cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order. A $15 million multiple-award IDIQ with NASA Ames Research Center for advanced research and development services runs through September 27, 2028. Other Transaction vehicles include a $1.4 million multiple-award DARPA contract for MASTERMIND (programmable logic for defense applications) and a $1.195 million DARPA OTA for LEVITAS (levitated and trapped accurate microsystems). Additional IDCs under Naval Information Warfare Systems Command and Air Force Materiel Command Research Laboratory vehicles carry combined potential value of approximately $40.8 million across eight task orders.

Activity has remained steady with 8 awards in 2022, 7 in 2023, and 12 in 2024, before declining to 2 awards each in 2025 and 2026. Thirteen awards with combined potential value of $399.5 million reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, representing significant recompete exposure concentrated in DARPA, Air Force, and Navy programs. The vendor's obligations across all awards stand at $969.1 million (69% of combined potential value), indicating active program spend.

The vendor's NAICS concentration reflects its R&D posture: 63 awards fall under Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences (except Nanotechnology and Biotechnology), and 49 under the cognate NAICS excluding Biotechnology. Top PSC codes emphasize defense R&D across advanced development, applied research, and experimental development, with 26 awards coded to R&D-Defense Other (Advanced Development) and 21 each to applied research and experimental development.

As a subcontractor, the vendor delivers specialized technical support to prime contractors including HII Mission Technologies Corp (munitions science and technology R&D for Air Force Research Laboratory), Booz Allen Hamilton (technology protection work for Naval Air Warfare Center), and Matrix Research Inc. (distributed airborne coherence radar support). The Service Contract Inventory dataset, which captures federal service contracts above $150,000, shows minimal SCI-reportable activity: $234 thousand invoiced in FY2024 across 0.4 FTEs on a single prime contract, with a government-paid hourly rate of $275.60/hr. SCI data should not be interpreted as the vendor's total federal services revenue or workforce scale; it is a partial snapshot excluding goods, products, classified work, and the bulk of the vendor's R&D contract portfolio. The vendor operates primarily as a prime integrator and does not rely on subcontractors for delivery; across SCI-reportable prime contracts, sub-engagement averaged zero percent of total hours.
