Notice of Intent to Award a Sole Source Contract Modification

The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) issued this special notice, solicitation number REQAB2600028, regarding its intent to award a sole source contract modification for Link-16 development test event support. This requirement focuses on a test event scheduled for calendar year 2027, where the contractor will establish a test architecture and provide modeling and simulation data to validate the Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) Operation Support System. The scope includes executing interoperability testing, performing problem investigations, and delivering specialized engineering assistance to finalize the Interface Design Document (IDD) for implementation between Command and Control (C2) and shipboard combat systems.

The anticipated period of performance for these services begins on the date of award and continues through April 30, 2028. Work will be performed in Moorestown, New Jersey, under NAICS code 541715 for Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences (except Nanotechnology and Biotechnology) and PSC AC13 for National Defense R&D Services; Department of Defense - Military; Experimental Development. There is no set-aside designated for this action, and the agency has provided one attachment, a pre-solicitation notice, for informational purposes.

As of the publication on April 23, 2026, the response deadline is set for May 8, 2026. This notice is intended to inform the public of the sole source modification and does not constitute a request for competitive proposals. Sherman Mayle serves as the primary point of contact for this requirement.
