Advanced technology, science and engineering solutions provider ECS has been named a prime awardee on the General Services Administration’s ASTRO contract.
Managed by the GSA’s Federal Systems Integration and Management Center, ASTRO is a 5-year, multiple-award indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contract with no defined ceiling value and an estimated worth in the multibillion-dollar range. GSA also maintains the option to extend contracts for five additional years.
“ECS continues to be at the forefront of analytics, autonomous robotics, and AI/ML algorithm development,” said Marshall Thames, senior vice president of ECS Mission Solutions business unit. “Through the ASTRO contract vehicle, ECS will provide the DoD with innovative technologies that deliver new capabilities to the warfighter, ensuring the success of future missions.”
The contract focuses on the development, integration, operation, maintenance and support of unmanned/manned/optionally manned systems, robotics and platforms. ECS was selected for multiple contract awards with wins in the Mission Operations and Development/System Integration pools.
“Our company has a long history of delivering cutting-edge, never-before developed AI/ML solutions to federal customers,” said John Heneghan, chief operating officer of ECS. “We look forward to working with GSA FEDSIM on this innovative contract as we strengthen our nation’s warfighters across sea, air, land, and space.”
