Background:

The proposed acquisition is for procurement of engineering services necessary to support fielding of the Lower Tier Air and Missile Defense Sensor (LTAMDS) radar system.  These services include training software and devices, integration of non-recurring engineering into the WISLA Integrated Battle Command System (IBCS), engineering technical assistance for in-country flight test support, and engineering services.

The government is seeking interested contractors to provide services to support the LTAMDS Engineering Services for the Lower Tier Air and Missile Defense (LTAMDS) System.

The intended award will be executed under a Task Order against the Basic LTAMDS Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract, SPRBL1-26-D-A001. These activities include such engineering activities as program management, configuration management, product assurance, logistics, system engineering, maintenance engineering, product engineering, software engineering, and testing.

These services include test requirements and the continued modernization and integration of the LTAMDS System to other systems that provide the Air and Missile Defense (AMD) capabilities to the US and Foreign Military Sales (FMS) customers. This effort also includes software development, integration, and testing for the LTAMDS System. The contractor must possess the necessary technical knowledge to perform these services comprehensively at the system level to ensure both compatibility and performance to the technical specification of the system. This includes but is not limited to the capacity to understand both the integration and repair of all associated parts to the system specification level. The performance period for this effort is projected to commence on or about 1 November 2026.
