MAK Technologies Selected for Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity Contract by the United States Air Force Life Cycle Management Center Architecture & Integration Directorate

MAK selected as one of the contractors for key categories of the Multi-Award Contract including Development Planning, Systems Development, and Synthetic Environment Development

Cambridge, MA, 8 February, 2023 - MAK Technologies (MAK), a company of ST Engineering North America, today announced it was one of the contractors awarded an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract by the United States Air Force Life Cycle Management Center Architecture & Integration Directorate (AFLCMC/XA) to rapidly contract for capabilities that enable multi-domain, multi-level security development, analysis, and synthetic environments.

This IDIQ contract is a Multi-Award Contract (MAC) which provides for an indefinite quantity of supplies or services up to a maximum of $900M with a ten-year period of performance. MAK is eligible to compete, along with the other eligible industry participants, as a prime for delivery orders through this contract over the next ten years.

The IDIQ contract covers three categories of performance, and MAK was selected to participate in all three.

• Category 1 – Development Planning: Capability Development and Development Planning includes activities associated with concept development/maturation modeling, simulation & analysis, product support planning, and future technology integration.

• Category 2 – Systems Development: Systems Development consists of innovative approaches to develop a wide range of systems addressing warfighter needs and supporting future program launch across the AFLCMC/XA portfolio.

• Category 3 – Synthetic Environment Development: Simulation Development includes development, testing, deployment, and operation within a simulated environment.

“MAK is proud to be chosen for all three categories on this US Air Force IDIQ – we are well-positioned to contribute in a substantial and meaningful way,” said Bill Cole, MAK’s CEO and President. “We’ve been delivering innovative, market-leading simulation software products and services to military simulation and training customers for more than 30 years. The skills, technology, and team that we’ve built over that time align with AFLCMC/XA’s mission to address warfighter needs and gaps through high-confidence simulation and training solutions.”

MAK’s 30+ years developing and selling its MAK ONE Commercial off the Shelf (COTS) products are punctuated by key program wins that demonstrate technical capabilities required for the AFLCMC/XA IDIQ contract.
