Lockheed receives ATMP contract
Lockheed Martin has received a contract from the US Army to sustain over 300,000 fielded Training Aids, Devices, Simulators and Simulations (TADSS), including live-fire ranges and instrumentation systems, the company announced on 16 March.
The Army TADSS Maintenance Program (ATMP) contract is for seven years and worth $3.53 billion.
ATMP allows maintainers to use mobile devices with advanced management information technology to efficiently and effectively track and maintain a wide range of training systems. This allows the army to make informed decisions using on-demand access to accurate, complete and timely data.
Amy Gowder, general manager and VP, Lockheed Martin Training and Logistics Solutions, said: ‘Lockheed Martin is proud of the trust and confidence the army shows in us by selecting us to provide a worldwide, integrated, one-stop training systems maintenance and sustainment programme.’
Lockheed Martin will collaborate with PULAU Corporation and Cubic Global Defense on the contract.
