Leidos awarded million$$$ U.S. Army C5ISR + COTS systems task order

April 15, 2024

Leidos (NYSE:LDOS) was recently awarded a follow-on prime contract to provide the U.S. Army with technology-enabled services, including hardware sustainment, modernization, refresher training, and logistics support.

The Responsive Strategic Sourcing for Services (RS3), indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) task order, has a base period of 11 months, and a maximum value of $267 million, if all four one-year options are exercised.

Under the task order, Leidos experts in Command, Control, Communication, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance, & Reconnaissance (C5ISR) will assess Army hardware capabilities against performance parameters, build out hardware configurations, and implement upgrades. Leidos will also help to coordinate equipment warehousing, shipping, and warranty repair.
