MCLEAN, Va., March 21 (UPI) -- The U.S. Navy, Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center Atlantic has given Virginia's SAIC a prime contract for supply chain management services.

The SSC Atlantic command is responsible for the acquisition, integration, fielding and logistics support of Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance systems for the U.S. Department of Defense and civil federal agencies.

The multiple award is an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity vehicle with a one-year base performance period and four one-year options. The value for all awardees is $500 million if all options are exercised.

Science Applications International Corp. said, under the contract, it will procure and deliver commercial off-the-shelf audiovisual products, related equipment and accessories to warfighters as required.

SAIC will also provide equipment support services to include installation, repair, configuration and upgrades.

"We look forward to leveraging the combined C4IT and logistics experience of SAIC to streamline SSC Atlantic equipment procurement, improve supply chain visibility and delivery quality and provide cost-effective AV products through our existing Web-based logistics systems," said Glenn San Giacomo, SAIC senior vice president and business unit general manager.
