NASA Awards Global Information Technology, Communications Contract

NASA has awarded a new, agencywide information technology and communications services contract for Advanced Enterprise Global Information Technology Solutions (AEGIS) to Leidos Inc. of Reston, Virginia.

Through the 10-year, $2.5 billion contract, Leidos will provide telecommunications, cloud, and data center services across all NASA centers and facilities. The contract is designed to provide a seamless communications infrastructure that encompasses both wide-area and center local-area networks while supporting cybersecurity, collaboration tools, emergency and early warning systems, telephony, cabling, and radio systems.

Managed by NASA’s Office of the Chief Information Officer, the contract will provide assets and services vital to the agency’s continuing success as the world leader in aeronautics, human and robotic space exploration, scientific research, and space technology development.

The cost-plus-award-fee/award term contract also has fixed price services and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity components. The contract takes effect Sept. 1, 2021, and extends through Aug. 31, 2031, if all options and award terms are exercised.

AEGIS is the follow-on contract to the NASA Integrated Communications Services (NICS) contract, under which these services previously were provided for the agency.

I am the owner of Cerebral-overload.com and the Verizon Wireless Reviewer for Techburgh.com. My love of gadgets came from his lack of a Nintendo Game Boy when he was a child . I vowed from that day on to get his hands on as many tech products as possible. My approach to a review is to make it informative for the technofile while still making it understandable to everyone. Ben is a new voice in the tech industry and is looking to make a mark wherever he goes. When not reviewing products, I is also a 911 Telecommunicator just outside of Pittsburgh PA.
