Quick Summary
The Department of the Navy, specifically the Marine Corps Intelligence Activity (MCIA), has awarded a sole source, Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract to BAE Systems Information & Electronic Systems Integration, Inc. for SOCET GXP software support and maintenance. This award, published on February 2, 2026, ensures continued critical geospatial intelligence capabilities for the MCIA's imagery mission.

- 30 SOCET GXP Xtreme Analysis Bundle UE licenses
- 4 SOCET GXP NGA Pro Bundle UE licenses
- 10 TerraGo 3D GeoPDF Publisher for SOCET GXP UE licenses

Key functions include survey data generation, geo-registration, and correlation of 2D and 3D geospatial data, enabling rapid 3D modeling and dissemination.
Contract Details
- Contract Type: Firm Fixed Price (FFP) with fixed-price CLINs.
- Period of Performance: One (1) twelve (12) month base period plus three (3) twelve (12) month option periods.
- Awardee: BAE Systems Information & Electronic Systems Integration, Inc.
- Place of Performance: Quantico, VA, United States

Justification for Sole Source
This action was justified as a sole source award because BAE Systems is the exclusive worldwide owner, developer, and distributor of the SOCET GXP software suite and its associated services. Market research confirmed that no other entity is authorized to modify, support, or distribute this specific software. While other geospatial intelligence tools exist, SOCET GXP was identified as the only solution capable of meeting the Marine Corps' operational and analytical requirements for an integrated, end-to-end GEOINT production environment. Transitioning to an alternative product would necessitate substantial reinvestment, introduce significant operational risk, degrade analytical efficiency, and delay critical intelligence delivery.
