ROME, N.Y. — ANDRO Computational Solutions, LLC this week announced that it has been selected for a prime contract award from SeaPort Next Generation (NxG), the U.S. Navy Virtual SYSCOM Commanders’ integrated approach to contracting for professional support services.
ANDRO, based at Griffiss Business & Technology Park in Rome, is a provider of advanced software-defined radio products including radio frequency machine learning (RFML) and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies for wireless communications and networking.
SeaPort NxG encompasses professional support on behalf of multiple Navy detachments and centers that include the Naval Air Systems Command, Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command, Naval Sea Systems Command, and more.
The SeaPort NxG portfolio has a listed value of $4 billion per year over a 10-year contract life span and could be as high as $50 billion over its full term, consisting of indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) multi-agency contracts, according to an ANDRO release. The Navy estimates that the contract will procure as much as $5 billion worth of services annually.
The SeaPort-NxG IDIQ contract covers a range of functional areas that include engineering services, system engineering, safety and process engineering support, research and development, software engineering, and more. Under this IDIQ, ANDRO will focus on delivering engineering, technical, and research services for the development of engineering prototypes and production-ready capabilities at scale in the AI/wireless communications and RFML space.
SeaPort NxG’s electronic procurement of technical, engineering, and other professional services represents a key strategy to meeting the Department of Navy contracting needs by preapproving a large and diverse community of contractors via a competitive rolling-admissions process, per the release. Once approved, contractors bid on work, individually or in teaming arrangements. SeaPort NxG provides an efficient and effective means of contracting for professional-support services and enhancing small-business participation.
“The award further cements ANDRO’s position among an elite corps of ‘best-in-class’ government contractors from across the nation that are ready to respond to the Navy’s needs and complex service requirements related to AI, advanced wireless communications, and dynamic spectrum sharing among other areas,” ANDRO President Andrew Drozd contended in the release. “Our contributions will assist in assuring that the Navy is well postured to sustain information dominance and spectrum superiority during these challenging geopolitical times.”
Drozd credits the SeaPort NxG win to Fred Frantz, ANDRO’s chief operations officer and capture manager.
Frantz said, “The SeaPort NxG rolling admissions round II solicitation led to a considerable number of competitive proposals. To be among a select group of companies to win a prime position under this vehicle further expands ANDRO’s already tremendous advantage in supporting Navy customers with our leading-edge mission-critical technologies.”
