Calendar year 2013 came to a close with a flurry of contract awards, including one for $750 million and another worth over $500 million. Here’s a roundup of the major IT-related awards from the last two weeks of the year.
Raytheon has won a $35 million option to provide the Navy with design agent engineering services for the MK-31 Rolling Airframe Missile Guided Missile Guided Missile Weapon System.
November, like October before it, saw another decrease in the number of contract awards reported, but there were still some huge contract wins. Who made the list?
BAE Systems has prevailed in its protest of a Navy decision to award the next generation jammer contract to Raytheon. The win had put Raytheon on track for billions in follow-on work, but now source selection will start over.
The government shutdown put a damper on contract awards in October, as did the traditional slowdown of awards at the start of a new fiscal year. Despite those conditions, though, there were several significant awards in October, and we rank the biggest for the month.
Raytheon has won a $12 million sole sourced contract to provide the U.S. Air Force with sustainment services in support of the Military Satellite Communications System Global Broadcast System.
Raytheon Integrated Defense Systems has won a $236.7 million contract to provide the Navy with Cooperative Engagement Capability, or CEC, Design Agent and engineering services.
September may not be the busiest time for high profile personnel moves, given the end of year contracting rush, but we still tracked several high profile new hires.
Raytheon has won a $231 million contract with the Navy to upgrade the Navy’s MK15 close-in weapon system, which protects ships from missiles that pentrate other defenses.
