07 November 2024 - 6:00AM
HII (NYSE: HII) announced today that its Mission Technologies
division was awarded a $197 million contract to support the U.S.
Army Combat Capabilities Development Command’s Ground Vehicle
Systems Center (GVSC).
HII was awarded this contract under the Department of Defense
Information Analysis Center’s (DoDIAC) multiple-award contract
(MAC) vehicle. These IAC MAC task orders are awarded by the U.S.
Air Force's 774th Enterprise Sourcing Squadron to develop and
create new knowledge for the enhancement of the Defense Technical
Information Center (DTIC) repository and the research and
development and science and technology (S&T) community.
Under the five-year task order, HII will research and develop
enhancements for GVSC’s ground combat systems and service lifecycle
efforts. With an emphasis on vehicle power and mobility, the
research will apply to the full suite of Army vehicles, from manned
and unmanned ground combat vehicles to hybrid, joint light tactical
and robotic vehicles.
“We look forward to continuing our longstanding relationship
with GVSC, building on our 20-year history supporting the center’s
important mission,” said Grant Hagen, head of Mission Technologies’
Warfare Systems group. “Accelerating advanced technology to benefit
the warfighter is a priority, and we’re pleased to collaborate with
the Army on ground vehicle advancements that will improve soldier
safety and mission success on the battlefield.”
Work will be performed primarily in Warren, Michigan.
