The Missile Defense Agency is conducting market research to identify qualified vendors that can support future requirements of the Army Navy/Transportable Radar Surveillance and Control Model-2 system.

The upcoming MDA requirements include development services, which cover software maintenance and upgrades, system hardware modernization, system engineering, and modeling and simulation, according to a Thursday notice posted on SAM.gov.

The AN/TPY-2, a mobile defense radar system designed to detect, track and intercept ballistic missiles, also requires manufacturing support. They include production components, system engineering, integrated logistics, program management, test functions, radar operations and logistics services, and sustainment engineering services.

Interested parties are invited to submit responses that address all or portions of the specified project requirements. MDA's Ground Sensors Directorate also calls on businesses to provide recommendations on contracting strategies, such as the potential advantages of offering the opportunity exclusively to small businesses.

Submissions of white papers and capability statements will be accepted no later than Jan. 7, 2025.
