FAIRFAX, Va., Sept. 26 (UPI) -- General Dynamics Information Technology is to provide support services to the U.S. Marine Corps C4ISR systems under a $94.4 million task order.

The performance period of the task order, which comes under a Defense Intelligence Agency Solutions for the Information Technology Enterprise contract, is for 42 months.

The support for command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance systems will be performed at six U.S. locations and Afghanistan, Japan and Bahrain.

"C4ISR systems are a critical piece of the U.S. Marine Corps intelligence program and global security as a whole," said Tom Kirchmaier, senior vice president and general manager of General Dynamics Information Technology's Intelligence Solutions division.

"We are proud to leverage our IT and logistics expertise, along with our in-depth understanding of military intelligence mission requirements, to reduce long-term costs and deliver secure, reliable communications and information technology capabilities to the widely dispersed Marine Corps organizations."

General Dynamics received the indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity SITE contract in 2010.
