SAIC awarded $249 million task order by Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command
Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) today announced it has been awarded a task order by the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command to provide modeling, simulation, and analytically based warfare analysis support to the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations' (OPNAV) Assessment Division (N81). The follow-on task order has a one year base period of performance, four one-year options, and a total value of more than $249 million, if all options are exercised. Work will be performed in the National Capital Region. The task order was awarded under the US Navy's SeaPort-e contract.
OPNAV N81 provides capability based analyses of all aspects of naval warfare and support requirements. Under the task order, SAIC will provide warfare support, campaign, and mission-level analyses; and management, documentation, and modeling and simulation support.
"SAIC and its teammates look forward to continuing our support of OPNAV N81 as they help enhance the Navy's understanding of resource and warfighting decision alternatives," said Tom Baybrook, SAIC senior vice president and business unit manager.
