The U.S. Missile Defense Agency (MDA) Consolidated Support Directorate announced the award of the Technical, Engineering, Advisory and Management Support (TEAMS)-Next Specialized Engineering Analyses (SEA) contract to the nTSI Joint Venture (JV) between nou Systems, Inc. and Modern Technology Solutions, Inc. valued at $637 million. The contract provides Specialized Engineering Analyses services over seven and half years to support the Missile Defense Agency’s (MDA) mission to develop and deploy a layered Missile Defense System in defense of the United States, its deployed forces, allies, and friends from missile attacks in all phases of flight.
nTSI is a Small Business Administration (SBA)-approved All Small Program Mentor-Protégé Joint Venture (JV) between nou Systems, Inc. (nSI-Protégé) and Modern Technology Solutions, Inc. (MTSI-Mentor). nTSI will support the layered Missile Defense System (MDS) and help advance concepts for future MDS inclusion. Activities will include supporting the government with threat systems engineering; advanced technology; directed energy; hypersonic defense engineering; space systems engineering; U.S-Israeli Cooperative Program engineering; cybersecurity systems engineering; test analyses and reporting; lethality, hit assessment/kill assessment, and collateral effects and consequence management; and concurrent test, training, and operations engineering.
“nTSI offered MDA a high-performance, low-risk, premier small-business solution,” said Kevin Robinson, MTSI President and CEO. “The integration of MTSI and nou Systems capabilities in the specialty engineering fields of digital engineering, high-fidelity modeling and simulation, agile software/DevSecOps, cyber security engineering, and advanced test data analytics are an exceptional match to what MDA needs to keep pace with a rapidly evolving threat. This contract is the first of what I expect to be many successful opportunities for the nTSI joint venture to deliver highly differentiated solutions to MDA and other national security customers.”
“We are excited for the opportunity to support such an impactful mission for the MDA to increase advanced missile defense capabilities for the nation,” said Dr. J. Brent Romine, nou Systems’ President and TEAMS-Next SEA Program Manager. “This is a great win for nou Systems and our joint venture with MTSI. Our team diligently worked in preparation for this effort. We are eager to create an enduring and high impact Specialized Engineering Analyses capability for the MDA.”
