ROME, N.Y. — PAR Government Systems Corp. in Rome has been awarded a contract from the U.S. Air Force that could eventually be worth up $490.4 million.
It’s a single award, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract with cost-plus-fixed-fee completion and firm-fixed-price type orders for Counter-small Unmanned Aircraft System (C-sUAS) software, hardware, and technical documentation, according to a Sept. 24 U.S. Department of Defense contract announcement. This pact provides for research, designing, prototyping, testing, evaluation, operational evaluation, experimentation, integration, technical installation, transition, and support through initial operations of C-sUAS technologies.
Work will be performed in Rome and is expected to be completed by Aug. 31, 2029. This award resulted from a competitive acquisition where one offer was received. Fiscal 2021 research and development funds totaling $5.7 million are being obligated at the time of award. The Air Force Research Laboratory in Rome (also called the Rome Lab) is the contracting authority.
PAR Government Systems, based at 421 Ridge St. in Rome, is a subsidiary of New Hartford–based PAR Technology Corp. (NYSE: PAR).
