"This contract will draw on skills and capabilities perfected during our deployed support of forces in Iraq and Afghanistan as well as our work on the Special Operations Forces (SOF) Information Enterprise (SIE)."
The work will be performed at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, Fla., with additional support required on a global basis. The anticipated total contract period of performance is five years with firm-fixed-price and cost-plus fixed-fee line items.
