Huntsville’s Avion Solutions has been awarded an Army Contracting Command Expedited Professional and Engineering Support Services (EXPRESS) task order for technical support for the Fixed Wing Project Office (FWPO) valued at $44.3 million.
As the prime contractor, Avion has teamed with SAIC, Radiance, Intrepid, PPT, and the Lockwood Group to provide centralized life-cycle management of the Army’s fleet of existing and emerging Fixed Wing aircraft systems for the FWPO. The contract includes Special Electronic Mission Aircraft (SEMA) systems, Transport Aircraft (TA) systems, Foreign Military Sales (FMS) aircraft systems, Quick Reaction Capability (QRC) aircraft systems, and prototype aircraft systems.
“The Fixed Wing team and I are delighted to continue working with Avion, and we are looking forward to a successful partnership,” said Rodney Hill, U.S. Army Acquisition branch chief for the FWOP.
The award is a big win for Avion in their continuing support for the Army’s FWPO and their mission to design, develop, integrate, deliver, and support Fixed Wing Transport and SEMA aircraft, and to provide critical capabilities to U.S. Army operational commanders and other Allied Forces for the next five years.
