RESTON,
Va., Dec. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Leidos (NYSE:
LDOS) received three new awards from the Defense Information
Systems Agency (DISA) to begin the next phase of IT transformation
and migrate an expanded user base to the Department of Defense
Network (DoDNet) under the Defense Enclave Services (DES) program.
DISA is working with Leidos through the single-award, $11.5 billion, 10-year indefinite delivery,
indefinite quantity DES contract to optimize network services for
Fourth Estate Defense Agencies and Field Activities (DAFAs) as they
migrate from their legacy systems to the modernized, consolidated
DoDNet.
"Under these awards, Leidos will begin to integrate new
technologies and services into DoDNet with the goal of enabling
DAFA migrations and enhancing user experience," said Bryan Jolly, Leidos senior vice president of
digital modernization for the DISA IT business area. "We are proud
to continue our work with DISA to create a more efficient, modern,
secure, and resilient common IT computing environment. This will
help defense agencies focus on their mission and support our
nation's warfighters around the world."
The first task order supports DoDNet Generation 2 Release 2,
which positions the network for large-scale DAFA migrations,
delivering data-driven, cloud-based management services, automation
tools, Zero Trust cybersecurity enhancements, and an optimized user
experience. These new capabilities aim to provide the DoDNet user
community with access to highly reliable, available, secure, and
scalable network operations to empower their unique missions.
The second and third awards launch the migration process to
DoDNet for two DAFAs, the Defense Contract Management Agency and
the Defense Contract Audit Agency.
In collaboration with DISA, Leidos is working with 14 DAFAs
through various stages of DoDNet onboarding and expects to have
approximately 100,000 users migrated to the new network by the end
of 2025. DoDNet is projected to support approximately 370,000 DAFA
users and endpoints once implementation is complete.
With a combined total contract value of more than $30 million, these three awards build upon
Leidos' recent win of an $823
million, five-year task order from DISA to provide the
long-term operations and sustainment construct for DoDNet.
Leidos has been leading operations for the DES DoDNet program
since February 2022.
