DCS Corp awarded NAVAIR NSS contract
DCS Corp announced today that the company has been awarded the Navigation, Safety Operations and Sensors (NSS) contract providing support to the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR). This cost-plus-fixed-fee contract has a five-year period of performance with a total value of $74M. This competitive award is a follow-on to a contract previously awarded to DCS in 2006.
"We look forward to continuing to work with NAVAIR to develop innovative technology solutions that equip our warfighters to perform safely and effectively in theatre. DCS appreciates the relationship that we have developed with our NAVAIR customers and our employee-owners stand ready to do what it takes to help our customers succeed in their missions," said Dave Russell, President and Chief Operating Officer.
DCS will continue to provide engineering, acquisition, technical, and logistic support to NSS's efforts to translate warfighter requirements into operational products for various Navy, Department of Defense, and Foreign Military Sales aircraft platforms. Work completed on the contract will be managed by DCS's Lexington Park, MD office.
