# Navy Awards BAE $99.2M Systems Contract

On October 2, 2026, the Department of the Navy awarded BAE Systems a $99.2 million sole-source contract for systems engineering and integration support to Strategic Systems Programs (SSP). Work includes engineering, fleet support, cybersecurity, and program management, supports a foreign military sale, and is scheduled to continue through September 30, 2027. The Navy will initially obligate $4.8 million in FY2025 funds provided under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

- **Why this matters:** The sole-source award reinforces BAE Systems’ role in SSP support and provides a defined period of work through September 2027; contractors should account for the incumbent position when assessing related Navy systems-engineering opportunities.
- The scope spans engineering, fleet support, cybersecurity, and program management, indicating demand for capabilities across technical integration and ongoing program support.
- The extracted records also identify separate SSP-related work: a potential $478 million systems-engineering and integration effort and a $94.6 million Nuclear-Armed Sea-Launched Cruise Missile services contract. Businesses can use these as context when evaluating the wider Navy strategic-systems market.
