ARLINGTON, Va., 3 March 2009.CACI International Inc. won a new task order, estimated at $40 million, under the U.S. Army's Strategic Services Sourcing (S3) contract vehicle.
The contract, for one base year and two option years, supports the Army's Product Manager Forward Looking Infrared (PM FLIR) and Night Vision and Electronic Sensors Directorate (NVESD).
The award increases CACI's business in the area of Army C4ISR (command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance).
PM FLIR is responsible for the development, capabilities' assessment, test and evaluation, production, and operational support of FLIR sensor-based systems for the Army and other DoD organizations.
The office works closely with the Night Vision and Electronic Sensors Directorate to identify, invest in, develop, and transition technologies and systems that show the most potential for enhancing the effectiveness and survivability capabilities of the warfighter. The goal of PM FLIR, says a representative, is to enable "sensing beyond the visible" to reveal threats that might otherwise remain unseen or blended into the environment.
CACI will provide engineering, logistics, and business operations support for the development, manufacture, and sustainment of FLIR systems.
