Amentum’s Jacobs Technology Inc. Selected for $4B Space Force Range Contract

CHANTILLY, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Amentum (NYSE: AMTM), through its wholly-owned subsidiary Jacobs Technology Inc., has been awarded the Space Force Range Contract (SFRC) by the United States Space Force (USSF), Space Systems Command, with a ceiling value of $4 billion. The company’s role on this contract will support the Space Force’s broad vision of enabling the efficient, high-capacity multi-user Spaceports and deliver engineering solutions to protect U.S. national security.

“Amentum will execute this contract to ensure the Space Force maintains assured access to space in support of national security, exploration, and commercial missions,” said Mark Walter, president of Amentum Engineering & Technology group. “Our team has the unmatched experience and expertise to enable the Space Force to meet its mission demands today and transform for the space launches of tomorrow.”

Under this contract, Amentum will provide systems engineering, cybersecurity, integration, logistics, sustainment, operations, and program management solutions to support Assured Access to Space (AATS) Space Systems Command and realize the USSF’s goal to modernize the Launch and Test Range System (LTRS). Updating the LTRS will enable a high-cadence, multi-user spaceport model for national security, space exploration, and commercial launch operations.

Amentum’s initiatives under SFRC include implementation of a consolidated LTRS strategy, Spaceport CONOPS, enhanced range resilience, digital transformation and modernization, and the recruitment and retention of low-density/high-demand technical talent such as machinists, radar specialists, data scientists, and engineers.

“This award builds on decades of trusted performance supporting the nation’s space launch infrastructure,” said Steve Arnette, Amentum’s chief operating officer. “We’re leveraging that deep institutional knowledge, combined with our modern capabilities, to help the Space Force drive mission assurance, accelerate launch readiness, and realize the full potential of a multi-user spaceport future.”

The 10-year indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract starts June 1, 2025. The work will take place across both the Eastern and Western Ranges, including Patrick Space Force Base, Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Vandenberg Space Force Base, and several geographically separated units. Amentum will begin transition activities immediately, in partnership with USSF, to maintain continuity and readiness in anticipation of growing launch demand.
