Many navies deploy platforms that they deployed for the first time more than a decade ago, so in many instances, these ships are laden with obsolete onboard technologies, although structurally, these platforms would be able to serve for many more years to come. Many countries are therefore equipping these older ships with state-of-the-art combat systems and C4ISR. 

BAE Systems is a global defence, aerospace, and security company with a long history of providing advanced technology solutions to the US military. Serco Inc is a provider of professional, technology, and management services, and Scientific Research Corp is a provider of advanced engineering and technology solutions.

The contract will support the Navy’s efforts to modernise its surface fleet and ensure that it has the capabilities necessary to meet future challenges.

With BAE Systems, Serco Inc, and Scientific Research Corp, the Navy will receive support to maintain its technological edge in a rapidly evolving global security environment.

In 2019, the US Navy awarded a C4I support services contract to Serco to provide Command, Control, Communication, Computers and Intelligence (C4I) Testing, Integration, and Installation services.
