Major contract awards secured by the company’s three defense segments during the quarter include a potential 10-year, $4.5 billion contract with the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency for hybrid cloud and information technology-related services and a $660 million contract for information, managed application, networking, enterprise and security services with the Environmental Protection Agency.
