SAIC to continue Army software development under $2.9 billion contract

Science Applications International Corp. won a $2.9 billion contract to continue mission engineering, integration, software development, and other lifecycle support to the U.S. Army, the company announced.

Under the potential five-year task order, SAIC will continue to develop and integrate technologies, including software development and maintenance. Applications include air and ballistic missile defense, fire support, close combat, manned and unmanned aviation, command, control and communications, interoperability, intelligence/surveillance, and automatic test equipment.

Work under the task order will support the Army’s Combat Capabilities Development Command Aviation & Missile Center, Systems Simulation, Software and Integration Directorate. Work previously performed as part two General Services Administration’s OASIS professional services contracts, Battlefield Systems Engineering Services and Strategic Systems Engineering Services, will now operate under GSA’s OASIS Software Life Cycle Development contract, SAIC officials said.
