Northrop Grumman Systems Corp. has been awarded a $198 million ceiling-priced delivery order to provide power amplifier module spares for the E-2D Advanced Hawkeye aircraft, according to details released by the U.S. Department of War.
The delivery order, issued under a previously established basic ordering agreement, covers the procurement of 608 power amplifier module spares for the E-2D platform. The scope of work is slated to be performed at Northrop Grumman’s Melbourne, Florida facility, with completion expected by February 2029.
The transaction includes Foreign Military Sales to Japan. At the time the award was announced, $64,307,666 in Navy working capital funds and $32,712,334 in Foreign Military Sales funds were obligated to the award. The announcement specifies that these obligated funds will not expire at the end of the current fiscal year.
The Naval Supply Systems Command, Weapon Systems Support, located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, is identified as the contracting activity for the award. The contract was issued on a non-competitive basis, with only one firm solicited pursuant to authority under 10 U.S. Code 3204(a)(1).
The award is structured as a ceiling-priced delivery order rather than a standalone fixed-price contract, and it draws on an existing basic ordering agreement as its vehicle. The contract explicitly ties a portion of the procurement to Foreign Military Sales, reflecting that some of the spare modules will be supplied as part of international military support to Japan.
Completion timing, funding sources, and the procurement approach are all specified in the announcement: work location is Melbourne, Florida; expected completion is February 2029; obligated funds consist of a combination of Navy working capital funds and Foreign Military Sales funds that will not lapse at the end of the current fiscal year; and the award was made non-competitively with one firm solicited under the cited statutory authority.
Details contained in the announcement identify the Naval Supply Systems Command, Weapon Systems Support in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, as the contracting activity implementing the award.
