The scope of work includes Combat System Engineering, Logistics, Software Management, Installation and Check-out, In-Country Support, Staging Support, Early Start work and Advance Studies to support current and future ships of foreign navies equipped with AWS. The anticipated contract will be awarded in or around the fourth quarter of calendar year 2026. Due to the complexity of the AWS lifetime support requirements described herein, a contractor must have intimate knowledge of all Aegis system requirements, weapon specifications, and equipment design. As the original developer of AWS capabilities for the aforementioned FMS customers, Lockheed Martin RMS is the only contractor with detailed knowledge of and experience with the AWS designs as configured aboard the FMS customer ship classes, as well as the integration of both Aegis Combat System (ACS) elements and FMS customer-specific systems with the AWS. Accordingly, the requirements described in this notice will be procured from Lockheed Martin RMS on a sole source basis under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1). Lockheed Martin RMS is the only known source possessing the requisite knowledge and ability to fulfill the Navy’s requirement to provide continued support for Aegis FMS customers without unacceptable delays. Companies interested in subcontracting opportunities should contact Lockheed Martin RMS directly.
