- USSOCOM has tapped Lockheed Martin for up to $10.53 billion logistics deal spanning 12 years
- The award covers global sustainment for special operations aircraft, vessels and ground vehicles
- The contract also folds in facility upkeep, supply chain and IT support duties
The U.S. Special Operations Command has awarded Lockheed Martin the potential 12-year, $10.53 billion Special Operations Forces Global Logistics Support Services II, or SOF GLSS II, contract.
What Is the Scope of the SOF GLSS II Contract?
The Department of War said Wednesday the indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract covers non-personal global lifecycle logistics and sustainment support, including expertise in maintaining program support and enterprise management functions. The draft request for proposals for SOF GLSS II noted the effort is built around three core competencies: streamlined design and rapid prototyping; production, modification and integration; and lifecycle sustainment activities.
According to the solicitation, the work includes support for Special Operations Forces aviation, ground and maritime platforms, as well as related systems. It also encompasses enterprise functions such as facility, supply chain and IT management, security, environmental, safety and health services, field support and industrial operations needed to run government-owned, contractor-operated-style facilities.
What Are the Other Details of the Contract?
Lockheed Martin will perform work at locations in the U.S. and outside the continental U.S. Funding will be provided on a task order basis. The contract includes a five-year base period, two three-year options and a one-year option. If all options are exercised, the contract will run through Aug. 10, 2038.
USSOCOM, based at MacDill Air Force Base in Florida, began the procurement process in 2025 with the release of the draft RFP. The formal solicitation was issued in September and received four proposals in November before Lockheed Martin was selected for the award.
