SAIC [SAI] yesterday said it was awarded an Army contract with a potential total contract value of $200 million to provide geospatial research, intelligence and support related to Geospatial Enterprise Services (GES).

The prime contract was awarded by the Army Geospatial Center (AGC), and is an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract.

The AGC provides the warfighter with timely, accurate and relevant geospatial information, capabilities and domain expertise for Army Geospatial Enterprise implementation in support of unified land operations.

Under the contract, SAIC will provide geospatial research, intelligence and support services, including: systems engineering and software development processes related to GES; develop, integrate and operate various intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) payload systems; joint capabilities technology demonstrations relevant to GES and command, control, communications, computers (C4) ISR requirements; and acquire, fuse and disseminate geospatial information and other sources at various echelons.

“We look forward to continuing to provide the AGC with an end-to-end architecture capable of collecting, integrating, synchronizing, managing, analyzing, displaying, and disseminating geospatial information and C4ISR systems, enabling the AGC to provide direct geospatial support and products to warfighters,” said John Fratamico, SAIC senior vice president and business unit general manager.
