Summary
AI-generated · Aug 24, 2025A single five-year IDIQ contract for Contractor Logistics Support (CLS) to sustain the AN/FPS-117 Long Range Radar System will be awarded, with a six-month extension option. The CLS effort covers comprehensive logistics and sustainment across 27 operational sites in Alaska, Canada, and Hawaii, plus the Engineering Facility at Hill AFB, Utah, and includes program management, engineering support, depot and field maintenance, repairs, hardware and software procurement, DMSMS management, hardware and software modifications (technical refreshes), emergency services, travel, and shipping. Task/delivery orders will specify the exact quantities, locations, and performance periods, with a mix of fixed-price and cost-reimbursement pricing.
A key requirement is to sustain non-proprietary assemblies and components of the radar; the OEM asserts restricted rights to certain components, so the focus is on non-proprietary assemblies and services not owned by the OEM. The government intends full and open competition for a single award. Offerors should monitor for solicitation amendments, prepare questions using the provided Excel template, and submit offers electronically through the PIEE Solicitation Module.
