The Department of Defense said Friday the nonprofit corporation will continue to serve as the administrator of the National Security Engineering Center, or NSEC, FFRDC.
In September, MITRE secured a $541 contract option from the Air Force for continued support to NSEC.
National Security Engineering Center FFRDC Contract Modification
The cost-reimbursement contract action awarded by the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center at Hanscom Air Force Base in Massachusetts brings the ceiling value of the previously awarded contract to $5.28 billion.
MITRE will perform work in Bedford, Massachusetts; McLean, Virginia; and other locations within and outside the continental U.S. through Sept. 30, 2028.
The modification includes foreign military sales to various countries.
