The contract includes a one-year base period of performance, as well as four one-year options. The overall value of the contract could increase to around $57.7m if the Navy chooses to exercise all options.
Leidos personnel will use their expertise in various fields, including epidemiology, psychology, medicine, and data science to provide support for survey and database studies across the full research cycle.
The company will undertake the contract work in San Diego, California.
