QinetiQ US to Provide Technical Support for DOD Strategic Capabilities Office Under $140M Contract Modification

QinetiQ Group’s U.S. arm has secured a potential $140.2 million contract modification from the Washington Headquarters Services to provide technical, administrative and professional support services for the Department of Defense’s strategic capabilities office.

The modification to a previously awarded firm-fixed-price contract has a base value of approximately $125.6 million and work will occur at the Pentagon Reservation and sites in Virginia through April 30, 2028, DOD said Monday.

The company will help SCO execute its mission objectives by providing capability assessment and technical evaluation, strategic planning, project execution and technical support, program security, financial and budget planning and general administrative services.

WHS is obligating $2.8 million in research, development, test and evaluation funds for fiscal years 2023 and 2024.

QinetiQ US inherited the contract from Avantus Federal, which the QinetiQ Group subsidiary acquired from NewSpring Holdings in November 2022.
