Serco to support US Navy C4ISR modernisation

The US Naval Information Warfare Systems Command (NAVWAR) has named Serco as one of eight awardees for an Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) multiple award contract, with Serco continuing to support the US Navy with the modernisation of shore-based Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems.

The contract vehicle has a ceiling value across all awardees of $968 million over a five-year base period and one five-year option period.

Serco will compete for shore work in the areas of design, installation, testing and other shore-based modernisation services at military installations, worldwide.  This award complements the equivalent back in August for ship and submarine-based support services, and together these awards continue Serco’s legacy position as a NAVWAR Global Installation Contract (GIC) service provider.

Over the last 28 years, Serco has supported NAVWAR through the completion of thousands of integrated installations on ships and shore facilities worldwide.
