Marine Corps Systems Command has awarded C4 Planning Solutions a $236.69 million IDIQ deal to provide services in the Tactical Systems Support 3 (TSS-3) contract.
The five-year contract includes five 12-month option periods which, if exercised, would bring its overall potential value to $249 million, the DoD announced on 2 June.
Under TSS-3, the USMC will issue task orders for professional engineering support services to provide US forces worldwide with continuous support of fielded tactical C4I programmes of record.
