Northrop Grumman Corp. won a contract worth up to $700 million with the Defense Intelligence Agency to provide an integrated cloud and sensor solution for faster intelligence to the warfighter.
The award is called Neptune Phoenix. The 9-year, single-award contract includes lifecycle management, engineering, design, development, purchasing, prototyping, test and evaluation, deployment and data analysis for current and future Radio Frequency and Electro Optical sensor systems.
“We’re transforming the digital ecosystem for the intelligence community to streamline inputs and provide actionable information at the speed needed to outpace evolving threats,” said Jennifer Walsmith, vice president of cyber and information solutions at Northrop Grumman.
Under the contract, Northrop Grumman will evolve the DIA’s collection, processing and analytics tools by leveraging model-based, systems engineering to consolidate and integrate DIA’s technical capabilities.
Northrop Grumman will also implement solutions that meet the needs of a constantly changing intelligence environment, and apply digital engineering to produce operational efficiencies and affordability.
