American Systems Corp., Analytic Services Inc. and Ideal Innovations Inc., have won a multiple award contract to compete for approximately $145 million in task orders to provide forensic services to the Army.

Under the five-year, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity award, the trio of government contractors specifically will compete to provide forensic services to the Army’s Defense Forensic Enterprise System (DFES).

The support will cover the forensic disciplines of nuclear DNA, serology, forensic anthropology, digital evidence, forensic toxicology and forensic pathology, among others, according to a Sept. 28 announcement from American Systems.

The goal of the DFES is to more centrally manage forensic science activities for all of the military services’ criminal investigations and warfighter operations and to support homeland security functions.
