World Defense Show 2026: Northrop Grumman to present improved C2 management system
The Northrop Grumman Integrated Battle Command System is in service with Poland and the US Army with another 20 countries believed to have expressed an interest.
FGM has announced that the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR) has awarded it an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity, (IDIQ) cost-plus-fixed-fee contract to provide command, control, communications, computers, and intelligence (C4I) systems engineering support to the US Navy. The contract, worth $16 million, was announced 21 May, 2012.
The contract will see the company provide command and intelligence systems analysis, concept definition, interface requirements, and system development and design for implementation, integration, interoperability, documentation, upgrades, and training. This three-year contract includes one two-year option, which, if exercised, would bring the potential value of this contract to $28 million. Work under the contract is expected to be completed by 10 May, 2015.
FGM also announced that earlier this month, SPAWAR awarded it a $17 million contract to provide the US Navy with application development expertise and software engineering support for current and new C4I systems. This five-year contract includes renewal options that could raise the potential value of this contract to $29 million.
