The Department of Defense, specifically the Department of the Army, is seeking to procure continued support services from EWA for the RATE system, which includes development, upgrades, and engineering support. This procurement is justified under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), as EWA is the only entity with the proprietary knowledge necessary to perform these critical enhancements without disrupting ongoing operations. The services are vital for maintaining the functionality and effectiveness of the RATE system, which is essential for electronic warfare testing and operations.
