HII locks in $147 million deal to support training services for US Navy

HII’s Mission Technologies division has been awarded a $147 million contract to support shipboard and shore-based combat training services for the US Navy.

Under the five-year task order, HII will provide engineering support for every aspect of training systems under the US Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division, Dam Neck Activity (NSWCDD DNA), including associated hardware, software, subsystems, and elements.

Specifically, tasks will range from integrated training system hardware and software installation, system certification and testing to troubleshooting, repair, and lifecycle sustainment.

“Providing full-cycle support for U.S. Navy, joint, coalition and Department of Defense training systems requires a seamless, well-orchestrated approach and close collaboration with the Navy customer to make sure we’re providing the best quality service possible,” said Michael Lempke, president of Mission Technologies’ Global Security group.

The company was awarded this task order under the SeaPort Next Generation multiple award contract indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity vehicle. Work will be performed at multiple locations in the US and overseas.

HII supports the US naval fleet across various bases and operational theaters worldwide.

Recently, the firm announced that its Mission Technologies division was awarded a task order valued at approximately $182 million to provide logistics support for US Air Force F-16 pilot training devices.

Under the five-year task order, HII and subcontractor Trident Military Systems will perform engineering maintenance for the US Air Force’s Mission Tactics Trainer Training System Support Center, which supports and sustains F-16 aircraft simulator systems in use by the US Air National Guard, US Air Force Reserve Command, and the US Navy.
