The commercial arm of General Dynamics, said today that it has been granted a $299 million contract to continue maintaining the network infrastructure of the Pentagon. With two six-month options and a one-year base period, the contract was given by the Defence Information Systems Agency (DISA) under the Joint Service Provider Enterprise Transport Management-Next Generation (JSP ETM-NG) program.
The program will see GDIT continue to manage and maintain the network infrastructure supporting over 55,000 clients at the Pentagon and National Capitol Region. Additionally, the business will enhance the network infrastructure’s speed, security, and dependability in addition to optimizing the IT environment.
According to Brian Sheridan, executive vice president for Defence at GDIT, “improving the Pentagon’s network infrastructure will further advance technological superiority for our warfighters.” “We look forward to continuing our long-standing partnership with DISA and reimagining new ways to provide a modern, secure and reliable network.”
