The company said the indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract could be worth up to $6.9 billion divided among the prime contractors, the company said. BAE Systems work on this contract will be performed at locations across the United States.
"BAE Systems gives the Air Force the reach and resources of one of the world's largest defense and aerospace companies," said Doug Belair, president of the company's Technology Solutions & Services business. "As an incumbent on the existing FAST contract, we'll continue our role of providing innovative solutions and services to meet the Readiness and Sustainment requirements of our customer."
The F2AST contract has a seven-year ordering period with a 10-year period of performance. BAE Systems can provide for future Air Force requirements to include modifications, development, and maintenance on all Air Force- and Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC)-managed weapons systems.
Major work planned under this contract includes depot-level maintenance of Air Force and AFSOC aircraft, development of weapon systems, and technology insertion into existing weapon systems.
