Standard steps for the notice type; not advice about this buyer.
. The PoP extension will allow support of those missions falling outside the current PoP and provide continued support for the production, and execution of those Subscale targets in multiple configurations. The information contained herein only initiates communication with industry in order to assess market potential. No solicitation document exists at this time. This Request for Information (RFI) constitutes no Government obligation to procure these items or issue a solicitation. The Government does not have an obligation to pay for information responding to this RFI and will not accept any responses as offers. The current Subscale contract requires the delivery of four (4) Short Range Ballistic Missiles (SRBMs), five (5) Medium Range Ballistic Missiles (MRBMs), and one (1) Mobile Launch System. Options are also in place for the delivery of up to seventeen (17) SRBMs and seven (7) MRBMs, as well as providing systems engineering for those launch vehicles and integration of the re-entry vehicle and flight test execution in support of flight test requirements per the MDA IMTP. The contract also requires the development and production of five (5) MBRV-11s to be integrated and flown on the Air Launched (A/L) Intermediate Range Ballistic Missile (IRBM) and Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) Target Delivery Vehicles. MDA is seeking alternate sources that can continue to produce, procure, and deliver subscale targets falling outside the current PoP, with Best Estimated Test Dates (BETDs) starting in 1QFY28 through 4QFY30. MDA is also seeking alternate sources that can produce and deliver the option of up to three (3) MBRV-11s to support the Missile Defense System (MDS) test program and future IMTP dates. It is understood that some of the RV types on the IMTP are expected to change, driving the need for additional MBRV-11 options. For both the PoP extension and the addition of MBRV-11 options, respondents are expected to produce, procure, manufacture, assemble, integrate, test, deliver, logistically support and document the system design. Respondents will also need to develop and procure kit capabilities that will be integrated with the baseline target vehicle. The scope also includes the production, development, operation, and sustainment of ground support equipment, spares, additional target components, target hardware and software/firmware, as required. Level III Technical Data Packages are required for all re-entry vehicles, targets, and ground support equipment. If no alternate sources are identified, the Government intends to issue a modification on the T4 Subscale Contract, HQ0147-19-C-0005 to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (NGSC), CAGE 8LM16, 1575 South Price Rd Chandler, AZ 85286-6615 under Statutory Authority 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as implemented under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1(a)(2) - Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. Based on currently available information, MDA believes that only NGSC is capable of providing the required services without substantial duplication of cost that is not expected to be recovered through competition and unacceptable delays. This notice is intended to meet the requirements of both FAR Part 5 and DFARS PGI 206.302-1. Description of the Requirement: Produce the MRBM T4 and SRBM T4 based on the T4 Targets System Performance Specification (TSPS) (DEI-DEIE-2021-SPEC-TSPS-012) dated 28 Oct 2021. Produce the MBRV-11 based on the TSPS dated June 27, 2024 (DE-TSE-2024-SPEC-TSPS-005) while complying with MDA�s Systems Engineering Processes. Deliver the option of up to three (3) MBRV-11s to support the MDS Testing based on the IMTP. Produce, procure, manufacture, and assemble hardware and perform required testing. Support launch vehicle integration, launch execution and pre-/post-flight activities. The MBRV-11 addresses a need to deliver target solutions for the MDS test requirements to defeat missile threats. The MBRV-11 will comply with the Targets Launch Vehicle to Payload Interface Control Document and will be integrated with the IRBM/ICBM Launch Vehicle to build the all-up-round Target. Responses: 1) Responses should address the ability continue support for the production, and execution of those Subscale targets in multiple configurations for the PoP extension and produce the MBRV-11 based on the MBRV-11 TSPS dated June 27, 2024 (DE-TSE-2024-SPEC-TSPS-005) while complying with MDA�s Systems Engineering Processes. Deliver the option of up to (3) MBRV-11s to support the MDS flight tests based on the IMTP needs. Procure, manufacture, and assemble hardware and perform required testing. Support launch vehicle integration, launch execution and pre-/post-flight activities. 2) Responses should also address the associated detailed schedule that supports reviews, testing, production, MBRV delivery date, launch vehicle integration, and flight test execution at the required BETD. 3) Responses should also address the cost estimate associated for the effort.

Value counts new single-winner awards. "Shared" awards are multiple-award contracts that list every winner with the same total ceiling (same contract, or the same office, day and amount); that ceiling is not one company's win, so it is not added in. Contract modifications are not new awards and are not added in either (1 here). Notices whose amount is a placeholder such as $999,999,999 are not added in. Revenue next to a ticker is the company's revenue over the latest 12 months in its SEC filings.
Materiality: one award's value as a share of the winner's revenue over the latest 12 months in its SEC filings (or its last fiscal year, as noted when you point at it). Low under 1%, Medium 1 to 5%, High 5% or more. Many awards are paid over several years, so this overstates a single year's share.
For the 3 most frequent past winners above. Lobbying is matched by the company's exact name or exact ticker; agencies are as named on the filings.
Bills the past winners named while lobbying this agency's issues, rules from the department, and executive orders that name the agency, last 12 months.
For past winners matched exactly to a listed company. Insider trades are open-market buys and sells (Form 4) in the last 90 days, shown as facts; our own study found insiders do not reliably buy ahead of awards. A sale marked 10b5-1 was made under a trading plan set up in advance.

Companies are matched to tickers by exact name, including the subsidiaries a company lists in its SEC filings. A company we could not match shows no market rows; that is a miss, not a finding.
