Leidos has secured an $823 million task order from the Defense Information Systems Agency to manage operations and sustainment for the Defense Enclave Services Network program.
Under a $11.5 billion, 10-year single-award contract, Leidos will optimize network services for Fourth Estate defense agencies and field activities, transitioning them from legacy systems to the DoDNet.
This 5-year task order will expand support from 30,000 to over 160,000 users, including migrating 14 additional defense agencies and field activities to DoDNet.
“As one of DISA’s largest IT service providers, Leidos is focused on leveraging our innovation, speed, and agility to deliver an exceptional user experience and establish a strong foundation of operations and maintenance support to expand the DoDNet user community,” said Steve Hull, Leidos digital modernization sector president.
As part of this work, Leidos will help secure, scale and operationalize the DoDNet environment by providing flexible IT solutions like cybersecurity support, systems engineering, network architecture and management, and comprehensive technical support.
DoDNet plans to support approximately 370,000 DAFA users and workstations when implementation is complete. This effort also provides a virtual desktop-as-a-service solution.
“By delivering the standardized DoDNet, our goal is to enable more efficient service delivery and support across DAFAs to advance the mission of our nation’s warfighters and secure our combat operations around the world,” Hull added.
Leidos has led operations for the DES program since February 2022.
