The task order was awarded under MARCORSYSCOM's Commercial Enterprise Omnibus Support Services (CEOss) Blanket Purchase Agreement.

"We are honored by this opportunity to continue providing integrated support solutions to the MC2S and DFSA programmes," said Mike Berigan, senior vice president, QinetiQ North America. "We have the right team, with experience in engineering and acquisition 'blocking and tackling' and operational perspective needed to help programme managers for MC2S and DFSA put relevant and timely command and control capabilities into the hands of our Marines."
