The Department of the Air Force intends to award a sole source firm-fixed-price contract to Peraton Corporation for ongoing maintenance of the OS/COMET software license supporting the Integrated Satellite Control System used by the 10th Space Operations Squadron for operational control of key military satellite constellations, including FLTSAT, UFO, and MUOS. This acquisition is authorized under RFO 6.103-1 and 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) because Peraton is the original equipment manufacturer with exclusive proprietary rights to the OS/COMET software’s design and source code, and no other entity can provide updates, patches, licensing, or technical support. The maintenance encompassed by the contract includes all software patches, upgrades, new version releases, licensing files, and standard documentation for eleven specific OS/COMET license types, covering one FLTSAT satellite, four UFO satellites, and up to seven MUOS satellites. Technical support must be available via telephone and email at all times, with on-site response at the 10 SOPS facility in Space Force Base, Colorado, required for emergency situations that threaten mission-critical satellite operations. The contract has a five-year potential term beginning on July 15, 2026, with a base year and four option years extending through July 14, 2031. Deliveries of software will be distributed via physical media such as CD or DVD, while licensing files and emergency patches must be delivered electronically via email to the designated shipping address at Point Mugu, California. The contractor must provide two dedicated points of contact for service initiation and supply all manufacturer-standard technical documentation and software without additional charge. A presolicitation notice was issued on May 21, 2026, with the full solicitation anticipated on June 5, 2026, and a prior sources sought notice yielded no responses, confirming Peraton as the sole viable source. The acquisition has no set-aside and is classified under NAICS code 513210 with a size standard of $47 million.
