The Defense Information Systems Agency is looking to award its potential $4.6 billion network operations and management contract, Defense Systems reports.
Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE: LMT) and SAIC Inc. (NYSE: SAI) are currently competing in final source selection bidding for the award, according to the report.
The Global Information Grid Services Management-Operations contract has a three-year base period and two one-year options for operational management services.
This award will succeed the 10-year DISN Global Solutions contract, previously awarded to SAIC and Apptis in 2001.
DISA awarded Raytheon (NYSE: RTN) a contract in March to provide engineering services for the Combined Federated Battle Laboratories Network.
That contractor has supported that network for nearly a decade.
