CACI International has announced today that it has been awarded two task orders, each for two years and totaling an estimated $36 million in value, under its Strategic Services Sourcing (S3) contract with the U.S. Army.
The awards support the Army's Night Vision & Electronic Sensors Directorate (NVESD). Under the terms of contract, CACI will provide both professional services and technical assistance to the NVESD as a prime contractor. The awards increases both the size and scope of CACI's previous work experience for NVESD at Ft. Belvoir, Virginia and expands CACI's business in the area of Army C4ISR (command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance).
NVESD provides the Army with research and development of advanced night vision and other sensor technologies, such as infrared weapon sights, surveillance systems and systems that enhance the soldier's ability to operate at night and during limited visibility conditions.
The NVESD awards include an estimated $20 million task order to continue CACI's engineering and technical support to the directorate's Science and Technology Division to provide support to identify, analyze and develop infrared, countermine, laser, imaging and other related sensor technologies as previously supported through other contract efforts. The second NVESD award is a new task order for an estimated $16 million to provide testing and prototype development support for advanced technology sensor programs, as well as advanced Focal Plane Array (FPA) and camera sensor development. CACI's work on these contracts will help the Army advance the state of night-vision technologies and enhance the capability and mission effectiveness of warfighters in-theater worldwide.
According to Bill Fairl, President of U.S. Operations, 'We are pleased that the Army's Night Vision & Electronic Sensors Directorate has such a high level of confidence in CACI's ability and experience to grow our work with them. These task orders demonstrate the solid client relationship we have established with the Army.'
CACI President and CEO Paul Cofoni said, 'Our ongoing assignments under the Strategic Services Sourcing contract clearly show the value of our wide-ranging contributions to national defense capabilities. The more we can help our warfighters in performing their tasks more effectively and safely, the more we fulfill our overriding mission of being a national asset for national missions.'
