The U.S. Navy has awarded 59 companies positions on a multiple-award contract with an estimated aggregate ceiling of $249.9 million to modernize and sustain the enterprise information technology systems supporting naval maintenance and logistics operations.
Issued by Commander, Fleet Readiness Center in Maryland, the indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity vehicle — known as the Logistics IT Integration and Support Capability Modernization, Deployment and Support — allows for firm-fixed-price, cost-plus-fixed-fee and cost-reimbursable task orders, the Department of War said Thursday.
How the Navy balances digital modernization with readiness, sustainment and resources will be a central theme at the Potomac Officers Club’s 2026 Navy Summit on Aug. 27. The event will convene senior Navy leaders, defense officials and industry executives — including Acting Navy Secretary Hung Cao and Vice Adm. Brad Skillman, deputy chief of naval operations for integration of capabilities and resources — to examine how emerging technologies are shaping the future of naval operations. Register now to connect with peers across the defense industrial base and hear how Navy leaders are aligning mission needs with investment strategies.
What Does the Navy Contract Cover?
The awardees will compete to provide services across five functional areas: naval maintenance, repair and overhaul; naval supply chain management; naval product lifecycle management; the logistics integrated data environment; and integration and infrastructure capabilities within the Navy’s integrated platform and development, security and operations pipeline.
The work is intended to improve data integration and accessibility and accelerate the development and fielding of software capabilities. Work locations will be set as individual orders are issued, with the effort expected to run through June 2031. No funds were obligated at the time of the award.

How Does the Award Fit Into Broader Navy Sustainment Contracting?
The vehicle adds an IT-focused layer to the Navy’s recent string of large multiple-award contracts supporting fleet readiness. In September 2025, the Naval Sea Systems Command selected 25 companies for a potential $1.9 billion IDIQ covering the repair and modernization of nuclear-powered attack submarines at the service’s four public shipyards. Earlier that year, 17 firms won spots on a $2.65 billion contract vehicle for the maintenance and modernization of littoral combat ships homeported in San Diego, California.
