US Navy grants SAIC $597M deal

The US Navy has awarded Science Applications International Corp. (SAIC) a contract for the production and delivery of integrated C5ISR systems, networks, and support equipment for the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center (SSC) Atlantic.

As informed, the single-award contract has a five-year period of performance worth approximately $597 million.

The contract has an additional two-year award term that, if earned, would increase its potential value to approximately $861 million, according to SAIC.

Delivery/task orders awarded under the contract will include procuring, fabricating, assembling, integrating, testing, inspecting and delivering systems that include various complex designs provided by navy program offices in the form of technical data packages.

Systems vary in complexity but generally include the integration of engineered cable assemblies, mounting kit assemblies, hardware, and software/security applications necessary to provide the Warfighter with the capability to communicate, maintain situational awareness, and achieve information dominance.

Work will be performed in Charleston, South Carolina and Norfolk, Virginia.

“We are proud to continue to help SSC Atlantic streamline their system production services and provide warfighters with the latest technology available,” Jim Scanlon, SAIC senior vice president and general manager of the Defense Systems Customer Group, commented.
