Remotec, Inc.

Remotec, Inc., a subsidiary of Peraton Inc. (itself a subsidiary of Northrop Grumman Corporation), manufactures and supplies specialized robotic systems for explosive ordnance disposal, hazardous material handling, and remote inspections as a prime contractor on full-and-open federal contracts, with no set-aside participation. Headquartered in Clinton, Tennessee, Remotec operates across primary NAICS codes in machinery and equipment manufacturing, with a portfolio of 917 prime awards totaling $697.3 million in combined potential value over a thirty-nine-year contracting history.

Remotec's capability portfolio centers on unmanned ground vehicles and robotic platforms engineered for hazardous duty and law enforcement applications. The company manufactures and delivers the F6A, F6A+, F6B, Spartan, ANDROS, Remote Ordnance Neutralization System (RONS), and Air Force Medium Size Robot (AFMSR) platforms, along with proprietary replacement parts, maintenance services, and system upgrades. Representative work includes a $641,324 purchase order from the Secret Service (awarded September 2022) for F6A and F6B robots delivered to the Spartan platform; a $425,785 purchase order from the Secret Service (September 2024) for ANDROS SR1 robots with extended performance through April 2026; a $479,874 delivery order from Air Force Materiel Command (March 2024) for reset, sustainment, maintenance, and recapitalization across the Remotec robot family; and a $598,266 delivery order from the Army's PEO Combat Support and Combat Service Support (December 2021) for similar sustainment services. Recent smaller awards include a $271,798 ATF purchase order for an F6B-to-Spartan upgrade (September 2025, completion March 2026) and a $147,139 purchase order from an unidentified Los Angeles Field Office civilian agency for tactical equipment (May 2026, completion September 2026).

Customer concentration spans the Department of Defense and federal law enforcement. By award count, the top five customers account for 51% of awards, led by Defense Logistics Agency Aviation (233 awards, $8.6 million combined potential value), the Department of the Navy (74 awards), the Department of the Air Force (73 awards), the Army Materiel Command Communications Electronics Command (52 awards, $231 thousand), and Air Force Materiel Command (39 awards, $22.4 million). By dollar value, the top five diverge substantially: the Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command anchors the portfolio with 30 awards worth $82.3 million; Naval Sea Systems Command (37 awards, $30.8 million) and Air Force Materiel Command ($22.4 million) round out the high-value tier. DLA Aviation's 233 awards reflect a procurement pattern of small-value, high-frequency orders for cable assemblies, electronic components, and maintenance parts — the source data shows numerous orders for cable assemblies, filter elements, and similar consumables under $15,000 each, predominantly to aviation-focused customers.

Remotec's parent vehicle is the GSA Multiple Award Schedule, where the company holds a Federal Supply Schedule contract (awarded October 2022, ceiling $161.7 million, performance through October 2027) covering Special Item Number 334519 for bomb and hazardous material disposal equipment and detection services. The contract features over 150 part numbers for bomb disposal robots, accessories, and maintenance plans with fixed net pricing, 140-day delivery, and net-30 payment terms. Beyond the MAS, Remotec operates under five significant Indefinite Delivery contracts: IDC SPE4AX19D9406 (128 task orders, $2.2 million combined potential value), IDC FA821314D0010 (43 task orders, $27.4 million), IDC N0017497D0009 (19 task orders), IDC SPE4A615D5501 (17 task orders, $128 thousand), and related Army and Navy sustainment IDIQs. The MAS vehicle generates 201 task orders worth $54.6 million, representing Remotec's largest accessible vehicle for distributed agency procurements.

Activity has declined substantially in recent years, from eight awards in 2022 to two in 2025 and two in 2026 year-to-date (as of May 2026), reflecting a shift from transactional orders to larger, longer-duration sustainment contracts. Only three awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, with combined potential value of $301 thousand — minimal recompete exposure and signal of contract consolidation or multi-year task orders extending beyond the immediate horizon.

Remotec operates as a pure manufacturer-prime: 100% of awards are prime contracts, with zero subcontract positions across the portfolio. Service Contract Inventory data captures only $608 thousand in invoiced revenue in FY2024 across three records with zero reported FTEs, reflecting SCI's exclusion of goods and manufacturing work — the vast majority of Remotec's federal revenue flows through product sales and parts delivery, not labor services. The high hourly rates on the three SCI records ($964.83 tenth percentile, $4,824.14 median, $8,683.45 ninetieth percentile) reflect technical consulting and engineering support on specialized maintenance and sustainment services rather than operational headcount. Remotec does not engage subcontractors on the contracts captured in the source — the company manufactures and delivers its own systems and parts.

Remotec's competitive position rests on proprietary robotics platforms and sole-source procurement authority under FAR 6.302-1 on repair and upgrade work for legacy systems the company manufactures. Sole-source orders for F6B and Spartan replacement parts recur across the FBI Academy and other federal law enforcement customers, reducing competitive pressure on sustainment revenue but tying the portfolio to federal adoption of Remotec platforms and depreciation of existing fleets. The subsidiary structure — Remotec under Peraton under Northrop Grumman — places the company within a larger defense industrial base, though Remotec's customer set remains predominantly federal law enforcement and homeland security rather than DoD prime systems integration.
