Tyto Athene has won a $51 million, 60-month task order under the Department of the Air Force’s Cyber Transport Systems contract.

The award was issued under the Information Technology Enterprise Solutions-3 Services IDIQ contract and marks a recompete win for Tyto.

“Winning the 60-month CTS contract—the first of its kind issued by DAF for this critical program—underscores our sustained excellence supporting mission-critical voice and data communications infrastructure and the trust we’ve built with DAF,” said Dennis Kelly, CEO of Tyto Athene. “As a leading industry partner, we empower mission forces to maintain secure connectivity whenever and wherever operations demand—ensuring continuity of command, coordination, and execution across a global operational environment.”

Under the task order, Tyto will provide global sustainment services for the Air Force’s communications infrastructure, including Avaya Unified Communications systems, session border controllers, media gateways and mission-essential voice systems.

Work will be performed from Tyto’s Network Operations Center in Virginia, covering over 385,000 active voice lines across 103 DAF installations worldwide, including Air Force Reserve, Air National Guard and Space Force bases.

Tyto will provide 24/7/365 support staffed by certified voice system specialists, covering incident response, system health management and performance monitoring across legacy and next-generation voice architectures.
