SpaceLift Range Systems Contract Extension

The SpaceLift Range Systems Contract Extension is a sole source agreement awarded to ITT Corporation by the Department of Defense, specifically the Sustainment Mcpnt Ssc/pkl. This non-competitive extension is designed to prevent any lapse in the sustainment and modernization of national spacelift ranges while the follow-on Launch and Range Test System Integrated Support Contract is finalized. The scope of work encompasses a wide array of technical services, including sustainment engineering, configuration and data management, systems engineering, interim supply support, and both on-site and off-site depot level maintenance for hardware and software. The contract structure consists of one base year running from November 1, 2010, to October 31, 2011, followed by two six-month option periods extending through October 31, 2012, and a three-month transition period. With a total estimated value of 269 million dollars, the performance of these services is centered at Patrick Air Force Base in Florida, though the contract is managed through Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado. This action ensures the continued operational readiness of critical range systems under NAICS code 541712.
