Air Force Adds 66 Vendors to $900M Multidomain Systems Development IDIQ

Sixty-six vendors have secured positions on a potential 10-year, $900 million contract to help the U.S. Air Force develop approaches needed to build multidomain systems in support of the service’s warfighting missions.

The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center at Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio received 70 offers for the indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract, the Department of Defense said Friday.

Work on the multiple-award contract will run through July 28, 2033.

The IDIQ contract includes the characterization of new systems and technologies through studies and demonstrations, rapid prototyping and test and capability transition support services.

DOD listed 92 companies as initial awardees on the contract Dec. 9 and added Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) to the list a week later.
