Teledyne Brown Engineering, Inc.

Teledyne Brown Engineering, Inc., a subsidiary of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated, delivers autonomous underwater systems, missile defense test support, nuclear nonproliferation monitoring equipment, medical modeling and simulation software, and specialized engineering services to defense and civilian agencies as a large business prime contractor competing predominantly in full-and-open competition without set-asides. The company is headquartered in Huntsville, Alabama, and operates across NAICS categories including engineering services, facilities support, research and development in physical and engineering sciences, and search-detection-navigation-guidance system manufacturing, with primary PSC codes spanning professional support engineering, IT systems analysis, and specialized vessel construction.

Teledyne Brown's federal customer base shows significant concentration among defense agencies. The Department of the Army leads by award count with 96 awards ($315.2 million combined potential value), followed by NASA Marshall Space Flight Center (66 awards, $2.38 billion), Air Force Space Command (65 awards, $205.2 million), the Missile Defense Agency (46 awards, $1.37 billion), and Naval Information Warfare Systems Command (40 awards, $171.5 million) — together representing 42% of recent awards. By dollar value, concentration shifts toward major aerospace and missile defense buyers: the Air Force holds 20 awards worth $46 billion in combined potential value, Naval Sea Systems Command 26 awards totaling $12.01 billion, Army Joint PEO Chemical and Biological Defense 7 awards worth $8.8 billion, and Space and Missile Defense Command 11 awards valued at $3.15 billion. This concentration reflects the vendor's core positioning in platform sustainment, missile defense test infrastructure, and specialized defense manufacturing.

Teledyne Brown's parent vehicle portfolio anchors its federal access through multiple indefinite delivery contracts. The vendor holds a $151 billion multiple-award IDIQ under the Missile Defense Agency's Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) program (awarded December 2025, extending through 2035) and participates in GSA's One Acquisition Solution for Integrated Services Plus (OASIS+) Unrestricted with a no-ceiling MAC awarded December 2024. The vendor also holds single-award IDICs worth $126.7 million with Bureau of Medicine and Surgery for medical modeling and simulation research tools (awarded August 2025 through 2030), $80 million with Air Combat Command for radioactive gas analysis (awarded November 2025 through 2033), and $39.2 million with Naval Information Warfare Systems Command for Littoral Battlespace Sensing glider design and production (extended through June 2031). Additional GWACs and multiple-award vehicles include the Air Force's Eglin Wide Agile Acquisition Contract (EWAAC) Fourth On-Ramp ($46 billion ceiling, awarded March 2025), NASA Johnson Space Center's Research, Engineering, Mission Integration Services 2 (REMIS2) ($478 million, awarded January 2024), NASA's Commercial SmallSat Data Acquisition Program ($476 million, awarded September 2024), and GSA's ASTRO platform-related services program (no-ceiling multiple award, awarded November 2021). The vendor also maintains position on Federal Supply Schedules GS23F0424K and GS35F5048H, with 60 and 45 task orders respectively documented in recent activity.

Recent capability work illustrates Teledyne Brown's operational breadth. The vendor received a $114 million cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order from Space and Missile Defense Command (May 2024) for Tactical Range Air Defense Missile (TACRAM) II missile defense testing support, including target design, pre/post-test analysis, missile integration, and launch services through March 2028, with Corvid Technologies LLC and Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation as named subcontractors. The vendor holds a $588.4 million definitive contract with NASA Marshall Space Flight Center (awarded September 2022, extending through December 2030) for Marshall Operations Systems, Services, and Integration II (MOSSI II), covering International Space Station payload operations, Space Launch System support, and IT management in Huntsville; FY2024 activity involved 385 FTEs across 801,328 contractor hours with 23 subcontractors performing approximately 50% of total hours, at government-paid rates rising from $60.19/hr in FY2023 to $88.61/hr in FY2024. On autonomous maritime systems, Teledyne Brown holds a $39.2 million single-award IDIC with Naval Information Warfare Systems Command for Littoral Battlespace Sensing glider production, engineering, and sustainment, with multiple recent delivery orders for LBS-G hardware, spares, and technical support valued between $27 thousand and $3.54 million. The vendor delivered $4.99 million in radioactive gas analysis services for Air Force Space Command's nuclear nonproliferation monitoring mission (awarded November 2025 through October 2026) and has supplied Automated Radioxenon Concentrator and Spectrometer (ARCS) systems for nuclear treaty verification under a $75.9 million single-award Air Force contract, with recent production and system-support delivery orders ranging from $294 thousand to $4.04 million. On medical applications, Bureau of Medicine and Surgery awarded $88 million for planning tool and analysis labor supporting Navy medical operations through January 2031 and $8.87 million for business intelligence and augmented reality/virtual reality contract support through March 2027, leveraging Teledyne Brown's Medical Planner's Toolkit and Joint Medical Planning Tool developed over prior contract cycles.

SCI-reportable federal service contract activity, covering contracts above the $150,000 threshold, shows invoiced revenue of $165.7 million across FY2022–FY2024: $4.8 million in FY2022 (17.6 FTEs), $71.4 million in FY2023 (481 FTEs), and $89.5 million in FY2024 (437 FTEs). Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reported prime contracts span a median of $132.08/hr, with rates ranging from approximately $54.17/hr at the tenth percentile to $508.75/hr at the ninety-percentile mark, reflecting a labor mix from technical support through senior program management. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed an average of 11% of contractor hours, with 61 named subcontractors reported, indicating that Teledyne Brown builds substantially in-house while leveraging targeted subcontractor support for specialized functions.

Teledyne Brown operates as a prime contractor in 86% of its recent awards, with sub awards representing 14% of the portfolio. The vendor subcontracts to major defense primes including Lockheed Martin Corporation (on Seal Delivery Vehicle MK11 reliability and sustainment programs), Raytheon Company (on Hypersonic Attack Cruise Missile / Southern Cross Integrated Flight Research Experiment and radar programs), Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (on ballistic missile defense simulation, gun mission modules, and engineering sustainment), Consolidated Nuclear Security LLC (on Y-12 National Security Complex and Pantex Plant management and operating contracts), General Dynamics Mission Systems Inc. (on radionuclide international monitoring and mobile user objective system ground sustainment), and Huntington Ingalls Inc. (on CVN 80/81 detailed design and construction). The vendor also received a $8.23 million cooperative agreement from the Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration under the Glovebox Manufacturing Expansion Initiative program (CFDA 81.258) awarded September 2024, supporting expansion of domestic nuclear glovebox manufacturing capacity through September 2028.

Activity across the past five years shows growth from 24 awards in 2022 to a peak of 64 awards in 2024 and 63 in 2025, with only 3 awards recorded in 2026 to date (as of March 2026). A recompete cliff exposes 16 awards totaling $399.6 million in combined potential value with ultimate completion dates falling within the next twenty-four months, creating near-term recompete risk for this segment of the vendor's footprint. The vendor's multi-billion-dollar IDIC and GWAC ceiling values, particularly the $151 billion SHIELD award and the no-ceiling OASIS+ participation, position Teledyne Brown to pursue task orders across a broad federal customer base while maintaining sustained access to defense, space, and select civilian agencies through structurally embedded contract vehicles extending through 2030–2035.
