This contract represents a delivery order under the existing indefinite delivery vehicle (IDV) awarded to Orbital Sciences Corporation, a prominent aerospace firm specializing in defense and space systems. The contract focuses on operation and maintenance services for the GQM-163A supersonic aerial target system, which is vital for U.S. Department of Defense testing and training activities. The work includes preparation, functional support, and maintenance necessary to ensure reliable performance of these defense target systems. This award builds upon a prior sole-source IDV contract with Orbital Sciences, reflecting their unique expertise and ongoing role since 2018. Conducted at the Point Mugu Naval Air Warfare Center in California, this delivery order covers a multi-month timeframe within 2026, reinforcing continuous national security capabilities. This contract was awarded non-competitively under the IDV vehicle due to Orbital Sciences' established proficiency and prior performance on the GQM-163A platform.
