General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT) has won a multiple-award, indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity contract from the US Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA).

The $535m contract has a base performance period of five years and includes one five-year option.

GDIT will support the agency through the information technology support services contract vehicle and compete on individual task orders to provide services across the full range of DTRA’s mission and technology domains.

Under the contract, the company’s offerings will include data fusion and analytics, improvised threat technologies, weapons of mass destruction, situational awareness and simulation.

GDIT Defense Division head senior vice-president Leigh Palmer said: “GDIT will now support DTRA’s essential mission through IT services across the entire agency.

“DTRA is the official combat support agency that prepares for and counteracts improvised threats or weapons of mass destruction and ensures nuclear deterrence.”

“This award allows GDIT to expand our offerings and support DTRA through its journey into new capabilities. We are excited to grow this important relationship over the coming years.”
