According to an award notice published Monday, the company will serve as an enterprise integration partner under the cost-plus-fixed-fee contract and work with the Department of Defense’s Innovation Capability and Modernization Office and the U.S. Navy to identify, build and deliver holistic solutions to regional and broader challenges facing the submarine workforce and industrial base.
According to the solicitation, the contract’s scope includes the provision of labor, equipment and materials needed to build and expand the capability and size of the maritime submarine workforce and industrial base and accelerate the development and adoption of improved manufacturing technologies and processes in key areas of the U.S. maritime supply chain.
