Anti-Tamper Plan for the Multi-Stage Supersonic Target (MSST)

The Naval Air Systems Command plans to issue a Cost Plus Incentive Fee contract modification to Alliant Tech Systems (ATK) for the development of an anti-tamper plan specifically for the Multi-Stage Supersonic Target (MSST). As the original designer of the MSST, ATK is uniquely qualified and possesses proprietary data and design knowledge essential to creating the plan within the required timeframe, thereby avoiding unnecessary costs to the government. This contract modification under NAVAIR contract N00019-08-C-0058 ensures continuity and leverages ATK’s specialized expertise and experienced personnel. The contract activity is classified under NAICS code 336414 and is managed by the Naval Air Systems Command, located in Patuxent River, Maryland, with performance occurring in Woodland Hills, California. The point of contact for this procurement includes a contract specialist, Francis Fisher, and contracting officer, Vicki Fuhrmann. The plan’s primary goal is to establish measures that protect the MSST’s technology from tampering, a critical aspect given the target's advanced design and operational capabilities.
