Description: The purpose of the N2CS ID/IQ is to procure sustainment and modernization services for mission communications systems aboard E-4B aircraft. This includes engineering, program management, field service representative support, specialized software sustainment and modernization, cybersecurity support, and facilities management support and expansion development of the System Integration Lab (SIL) necessary to perform the sustainment and modernization of the critical capabilities for the mission communication suite. The mission communication system's primary mission is to serve as the NAOC and is the key component of the National Military Command System (NMCS) for the President, the Secretary of Defense, and the Joint Chiefs of Staff. In case of a national emergency or destruction of ground command and control centers, the E-4B aircraft provides a highly survivable command and control communications center to direct United States Forces, execute emergency war orders, and coordinate action by civil authorities.
