The Naval Air Systems Command intends to negotiate a Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee (CPFF) delivery order under a Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA), with a one-year base plus four one-year options for Navy Underwater Active Multiple Ping (NUMAP) AN/SSQ-113 series F1, F4, and F5 frequency sonobuoys to ERAPSCO, 4578 East Park 30 Drive, Columbia City, IN 46725-8869, on a sole source basis for Fiscal Year 2021 through 2026 requirements. These sonobuoys are critical sensors that are required by the United States Navy (USN) Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) forces to detect, classify, and localize adversary submarines during peacetime and combat operations. The sonobouy production efforts herein ensure the continued enhancements of sonobuoy effectiveness regardless of employing platform or environment, and prevent technological obsolescence of sonobuoy components through continued analysis, design, and testing for future sonobuoy configurations.
