ARLINGTON, Va., Dec. 21 (UPI) -- The U.S. National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency has chosen BAE Systems for Activity-Based Intelligence systems, tools and support for its mission priorities.

The task order was given under the NGS's Total Application Services for Enterprise Requirements program. It is an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity vehicle with a value of $60 million.

BAE Systems said its ABI solution uses advanced software analysis tools that are integrated with commercial off-the-shelf computing infrastructure to automate the ingestion, storage and processing of large volumes of intelligence data. It allows analysts to better identify patterns of adversarial activity and streamlines processes to turn data into actionable intelligence.

"Our ABI solution has created a dramatic step forward into the creation of predictive intelligence analysis that enables us to proactively defend our nation against terrorism, insurgency, narcotics trafficking, and weapons proliferation," said DeEtte Gray, president of BAE Systems' Intelligence and Security sector.
