Lockheed Martin wins JIEDDO task orders
Lockheed Martin has been awarded two separate task order contracts from the Department of Defense’s Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat Organization (JIEDDO). The task orders have a combined value of nearly $460 million.
“Lockheed Martin is proud to perform mission-critical work for the safety and well-being of our troops,” said Bob Kramer, Lockheed Martin Information Systems & Global Services-Defense’s vice president for Operational Systems & Services. “We are dedicated to JIEDDO, its mission of defeating IEDs and ultimately, saving lives.”
Lockheed Martin is providing the JIEDDO Counter-IED Operations Integration Center analytical support teams with technical expertise in operational level military operations, intelligence operations research/systems analysis, and operations-intelligence fusion and analysis to support deployed US and coalition forces in counter-IED operations.
The task orders have a one-year base period of performance with two one-year options, respectively. Work is underway in Northern Virginia and in the Central Command areas of operations and more than 500 employees will be required to support the mission.
