The Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) has awarded a contract with a potential value of $17 billion to Huntington Ingalls Industries to provide varied analytic and operational support services.
“Critical readiness of our defense intelligence enterprise demands unique expertise and advanced technology solutions,” said Garry Schwartz, president of Technical Solutions’ Mission Driven Innovative Solutions group – a subsidiary of Huntington Ingalls Industries. “For more than 20 years, we have partnered with DIA to maintain global situational awareness of threats to our nation, and we look forward to continuing to support this vital mission.”
The agreement has a base period of five years. Huntington Ingalls Industries currently supports the intelligence requirements of the Joint Improvised-Threat Defeat Organization (JIDO), U.S. Forces Korea, U.S. Special Operations Command, U.S. Air Forces-Europe, U.S. European Command, U.S. Central Command, and the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command. HII provides contractor-owned, contractor-operated manned and unmanned airborne intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance to the Department of Defense.
