Titan Awarded Three Government IT Services Contracts
The Titan Corporation, based in San Diego, this week said it has been awarded three government information technology and system engineering and support contracts having a potential value of $47 million.
The U.S. Air Force's Electronic Systems Center (ESC) awarded two contracts to Titan for integrated management support and information technology services for the Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) and the Global Air Traffic Operations/Mobility Command and Control (GATO/MC2) program offices, headquartered at Hanscom AFB, MA.
The AWACS award is a follow-on Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) contract and has a potential value of $21 million and includes two one-year options. In addition to providing program support at Hanscom, Titan will support key units and operators of AWACS-as well as the international AWACS programs with NATO, the United Kingdom, France, Saudi Arabia, and Japan.
The GATO/MC2 award exercises the first option period of a three-year ID/IQ contract of $10.4 million and covers work being performed at Hanscom and with the FAA in Washington, D.C. The GATO/MC2 program office is the Department of Defense's (DOD) centralized organization tasked with managing improvements in aviation technology, as well as acquisition of evolving Communications, Navigation, and Surveillance/Air Traffic Management programs.
The third award is for $15.4 million contract from the Joint Computer-aided Acquisition and Logistic Support (JCALS) program. Under the contract, Titan will support the JCALS program for nine months plus two, one-year options. JCALS is a major DOD Joint Services program that is transitioning paper-based support of all weapon systems to a fully integrated, secure digitized database.
``For over a decade, Titan has played a key role in the success of all these major defense initiatives,'' said Gene Ray, Titan's chairman, president and CEO. ``These significant follow-on awards clearly highlight Titan's successful performance in working with the Air Force, Army, and other federal agencies on some of our nation's most significant needs and advanced technologies.''
