Booz Allen Hamilton (NYSE: BAH) has secured a seven-year, $630 million contract to provide the U.S. Space Force with systems engineering and integration services for space sensing capabilities, such as the Next Generation Overhead Persistent Infrared satellites.
The project builds on Booz Allen’s existing partnership with the Space Systems Command and will be carried out in El Segundo, California, as well as Colorado Springs and Aurora, Colorado, the company said Wednesday.
The single-award contract is expected to enhance SSC’s missile warning, reconnaissance, tracking, surveillance and environmental monitoring capabilities from space.
