Serco awarded three US Navy task orders

Posted 8 May 2019

Serco Inc. has been awarded three new task orders within the last 30 days, under the US Navy's SPAWAR Global Installation Contract vehicle, installing command, control, communications, computer, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems including Consolidated Afloat Network Enterprise System (CANES) and Navy Multiband Terminal (NMT).

The task orders have a cumulative value of $16.4 million.

Serco will install the C4ISR systems aboard a guided-missile cruiser, an amphibious transport dock ship and a Los Angeles-class submarine. The work scope includes removal of current systems, structural modifications, installation of 21 different C4ISR systems, and testing support. Work will be done in San Diego and Hawaii.

“We are excited to grow our ship modernization services under these three new task orders,” said Dave Dacquino, Serco’s Chairman and CEO. “Our team put together a solution that tapped into our extensive past performance thereby helping our Navy provide the latest technology to our fleet.”

Since 2001, Serco has been supporting the US Navy with ship modernisation services. The Company has completed over 1,000 integrated installations on ships and at shore facilities worldwide to provide the Navy and the warfighter with knowledge superiority by delivering effective, capable, and integrated C4ISR systems.
