The contract extends a longstanding relationship between TRAX and YPG, with the company providing over 900 technical professionals to support more than 400 annual test events.
TRAX will assist in the assessment of equipment and technology for the US Army across these locations.
TRAX CEO and president Brian J. Clark said: “ATEC sets the standard in test and evaluation, ensuring soldiers have equipment that is fully tested and ready for the fight.”
The contract encompasses a range of test and evaluation functions as the Army adopts advanced technologies such as AI, digital twins, and high-fidelity modelling.
TRAX’s role includes helping to verify that new technologies operate in realistic conditions before deployment.
Currently, the company is said to be the only defence test and evaluation contractor supporting six Army test centres including Aberdeen Test Center and YPG.
TRAX senior vice president Brian Thompson said: “Our YPG team is one of the finest in ATEC. With 35 years of proven performance on this contract, we are committed to maintaining excellence in delivering mission-critical support for the US Army and its soldiers, helping reduce risk, avoid costly failures and build warfighter trust in new capabilities.”
In 2025, TRAX was also awarded a cost-plus-fixed-fee contract for test centre support services. Completion of work under this contract was estimated for August 2032.
