The contract supports U.S. Fleet Forces and other fleet commands by improving readiness for global operations. It includes a 10‑month base period, four 1‑year options and a six‑month extension.
“Our team is extremely proud to continue this decades-long, dedicated support for the U.S. Navy to advance their operational readiness,” said Barbara Supplee, SAIC executive vice president of Navy Business Group. “This program is integral to ensuring the Navy is thoroughly prepared to execute any mission assigned by Geographic Combatant and Forward Fleet Commanders. It directly enhances the Navy’s ability to deploy and employ all facets of the naval force on a global scale – making a critical difference in combat situations and supporting the Chief of Naval Operation’s priority of developing highly capable warfighting teams equipped for the complexities of modern combat environments.”
Under the contract, SAIC will support 19 Navy headquarters and training commands with academic instruction, live exercises, synthetic training events and policy support for pre‑deployment certification and post‑deployment sustainment.
SAIC will deliver advanced training scenarios through Fleet Synthetic Training and live, virtual and constructive environments, covering the Fleet Training Continuum from basic unit‑level events to advanced certifications and high‑end integrated exercises for deployment readiness.
The company will also provide reach‑back training to strike groups and amphibious ready groups during deployments, adapting to evolving operational environments and emerging threats.
