On Monday, Alion Science and Technology announced that it has been awarded a $3.3M task order to help manage, develop and integrate modeling and simulation (M&S) capabilities across the U.S. Army. Specifically, it will support modeling, analysis and project management for the Army Modeling and Simulation Office (AMSO). The contract, which is worth $3.3 million, enables AMSO to gain the tools and expertise to exercise its oversight and to manage modeling and simulation processes across all Army M&S domains.
