HUNTSVILLE — Radiance Technologies has been awarded a $4.8 billion prime contract with the National Air and Space Intelligence Center to provide support services under the NOVASTAR program.

The multiple-award, IDIQ contract has a base period of performance of five years with one six-year option period, Radiance said in a news release.

NOVASTAR involves research, development, sustainment, and production across NASIC‘s missions and disciplines for the Air Force, the Department of the Defense, and national  intelligence efforts.

Radiance CEO Bill Bailey said the company is excited to have the opportunity to continue supporting the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base community and NASIC.

“This is the culmination of 20 years of hard work by a lot of Radiance employee-owners with our customer, NASIC,” said Bailey. “Over those 20 years, our goal has simply been to provide NASIC the best support possible.

“We are honored to continue that on NOVASTAR.”
