Space Systems Command’s Battle Management Command, Control and Communications (BMC3) Program Executive Office will award a $900 million Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract to 18 contractors (see attached) to provide Data Software Services that directly support warfighter needs. All Contractors were chosen on a best-value basis, with a heavy emphasis on their commercial software solution and current accreditation or plan/ability to obtain accreditation.
“Contractors that win subsequent Delivery Orders will provide critical capability to support the Secretary of the Air Force’s operational imperatives, with a focus on delivering resilient and effective Space order of Battle and Architectures,” said Maj. Hayden Poe, SSC’s Warp Core program manager.
