Akima subsidiary Aperture has been awarded a contract by the U.S. Geological Survey to provide specialized science and technical support services in the Midcontinent region.
The single award IDIQ contract is valued at $20 million and has a period of performance of 5 years, if all options are exercised.
Aperture will provide USGS with support necessary for gathering information on the health of the U.S. ecosystems and environment, the state of natural resources, the impacts of climate and land-use change, and the core science systems on Earth.
The contract win is another opportunity for Akima to provide mission support services that enable its customers to create value for the benefit of the nation, said Duncan Greene, president of Akima’s Mission Systems, Engineering & Technology Group.
“We are honored to provide our expertise to agencies that execute complex missions, ensuring they can efficiently tap into a pool of professionals with the right skills and expertise,” he added.
