The U.S. Navy has awarded positions on a potential five-year, $167 million contract to three companies for assessment planning and warfare support analysis services.

Awardees will compete for firm-fixed-price and cost-plus-fixed-fee task order contracts to work with the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations and subordinate staff organizations on methodologies and reviews of the Navy’s warfighting capacity.

Subordinate staff includes personnel who support the vice chief of naval operations, deputy chiefs of naval operations and the assistant chiefs of naval operations the Navy calls OPNAV.

A spokeswoman for Science Applications International Corp. (NYSE: SAI), one of the companies selected for the indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quality contract,  confirmed the following list of awardees to GovCon Wire:

  • Metron
  • SAIC
  • WBB

Contract for OPNAV’s assessment division — or OPNAV 81 — will include the identification of potential shortfalls in capacity and measures to support trades between different naval components.
