The firm fixed-price contract is valid for five years and requires the company to replace the legacy CDN DDS-M with a small form-factor solution that is designed to increase tactical networking performance and reduce the physical footprint.
iGov Technologies Corporate Business Development senior vice-president Chuck Reiche said: “We are very pleased with our award for the CDN small-form factor. We look forward to providing the Marine Corps with a small form-factor design that increases performance, simplifies baseline management, and reduces operational and lifecycle costs.”
iGov is a provider of mission-centric command, control, communications, computer (C4) solutions to its government customers.
The company’s personnel and processes are specialised in executing full lifecycle enterprise and tactical C4ISR programmes in multiple areas, including tactical networking, software development, systems engineering, communications systems, and C4ISR platform integration.
iGov Technologies president Mike Tyrrell said: “As part of our core company mission, we continually strive to deliver critical mission-centric tactical IT solutions that reduce total cost of ownership. The CDN small form-factor award allows us to continue to support the Marine Corps into the next decade.”
Last month, the company secured a multiple award, indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity task order from the US Navy under SeaPort-NxG.
Under the contract, the company agreed to provide engineering, financial management, and programmatic support services in 23 functional areas to the Navy Systems Commands, the Office of Naval Research, Military Sealift Command, and the US Marine Corps.
