Lockheed Lands Pentagon Work

Lockheed Martin Corp. of Bethesda, Md., has won a 10-year task order that could be worth up to $400 million to provide a broad range of information technology services to the Office of the Secretary of Defense.

Under the contract, the company will provide seat management, network services, application packages and development, information assurance, document management and enterprise e-mail through its systems solutions unit.

Lockheed Martin hopes to provide seat management for up to 7,500 seats in the Washington metropolitan area under this contract. The first order for 1,000 seats is expected to be fielded in the next few months.

This win follows one in December that Lockheed Martin received, a 10-year, $378 million network management task order under GSA's Millennia contract for the Defense Department's Network Infrastructure Services Agency. Millennia is a $25 billion vehicle awarded to 12 companies used by agencies looking to field large IT projects quickly.
