On Tuesday, QinetiQ North America announced that it has been awarded a contract to provide IT support services for the National Defense University (NDU). The contract is potentially worth $28 million over five years.
QinetiQ will support the National Defense University’s Information Technology Directorate by providing IT services and support to the NDU community, migrating the organization to its target architecture, and providing information assurance support.
