Sole-source 12-month extension and ceiling increase for Air Force NIDS 4 task order

The Air Force is justifying a 12-month, sole-source extension of Peraton, Inc.’s NIDS 4 task order to maintain critical mission-planning applications while replacement systems are completed and tested. - Action: Extend Task Order FA873022F8506 on a time-and-materials basis and increase its ceiling by an estimated $8,909,600. - Work covered: - Continue NIDS software maintenance, deployment, testing, and on-site support; the justification estimates about $4 million for this work. - Complete the Strategic Nuclear Aimpoint Planning System (SNAPS) and Early Plan Design 2 (EPD2), intended to replace legacy N3 and EPD applications, and integrate with the Strategic Mission Planning and Execution System (SMPES); estimated at about $4.6 million. - Support code refactoring, mission-model updates, and planning for next-generation weapon systems. - Schedule rationale: The current task order ends June 30, 2027. EPD2 production is scheduled for April 2027 and SNAPS completion for December 2027, with up to six months of SNAPS side-by-side testing. The Air Force says an early transition risks delays and the extension supports continuity through the work; a future NIDS successor contract is intended to be competed. - Competition and suppliers: The notice justifies a sole-source extension to Peraton, Inc. No product manufacturers/OEMs or product quantities are identified.

Description
