The Naval Information Warfare Systems Command (NAVWAR), in support of the Program Executive Office

U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation
(FAR) 6.302-1. Contract N00039-18-D-0003 was awarded to Comtech as a sole source contract on
11 January 2018. The engineering services will support tasking associated with testing, obsolescence,
technical support, and ATIP system deliveries. The engineering services will also include software
maintenance (e.g., recurring security patches and corrections to latent defects) and hardware repairs of
Fleet and laboratory for extended lifecycle sustainment purposes, as well as hardware redesign to address
obsolescence of system parts. These services will also include studies and design changes, potentially both
hardware and software, to support interface changes required for connection to and operation with
externally connected systems, external modems and other baseband equipment, time/frequency
distribution systems, and navigation systems. These studies and design changes may also be required for
functional changes to enable or improve operations with compatible future MILSATCOM systems.
