D -- SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT

The contract FD2020-04-65080 is a firm-fixed-price agreement spanning three years, intended to add additional work to the existing Basic Contract F42620-03-D-0008. The specific task involves the development of software for the Aircraft Launcher Interface Computer (ALIC), focusing on DTED (Digital Terrain Elevation Data) functionality and date download capability. This work is designated for BAE Systems and is justified under U.S. Code 10 U.S.C. 2304(C)(1), indicating that the required supplies or services are only available from one or a limited number of responsible sources, with no suitable alternatives able to meet the agency’s needs. This contract reflects a targeted effort to enhance the software capabilities of the ALIC system by delivering specialized development services. The three-year duration and firm-fixed-price arrangement suggest a clearly defined scope and budget. Details such as solicitation number, posting date, and office or place of performance are not specified, but the nature of the contract underscores the critical nature of these enhancements to the ALIC software, supporting mission-critical defense applications.
