Перевод типа контракта gen.

[BR FON LARRY]

Доброе утро!))
Помогите, пожалуйста, с переводом типа контракта - bridge contract.
The Air Force was expected to award ULA a contract this summer for a total of 46 rockets to cover military launch needs from 2013 to 2017. However, the service now plans to award a single-year bridge contract no sooner than October.
The bridge contract is meant to give the Air Force enough time to complete a review of Atlas and Delta costs before making a long-term contractual commitment. Preliminary findings are expected this summer, the GAO said.
