General Dynamics Information Technology won a $185 million recompete task order to provide cybersecurity services to the Air Force Civil Engineer Center.
The work, which has a 1-year base period and four option years, was awarded by the 772nd Enterprise Sourcing Squadron at Tyndall Air Force Base, Florida.
“Protecting our operational technologies from our adversaries is vital to our national security,” said Brian Sheridan, GDIT’s senior vice president for Defense. “As a long-standing partner of the Air Force, we look forward to reimagining new ways to secure its critical infrastructure.”
AFCEC is a subordinate unit of the Air Force Installation and Mission Support Center. It’s responsible for facility investment planning, design and construction, property management, and environmental compliance and restoration.
Under the recompete, GDIT will develop new strategies to reduce cybersecurity risks to the Air Force’s industrial control systems, which include building automation, life safety, utility monitoring and airfield control. The company will use its cybersecurity and zero trust expertise to conduct this work at 188 installations globally.
GDIT has supported the Air Force with critical programs for over 50 years. In 2023, it won one of its biggest Air Force programs when awarded all initial task orders on a $4.5 billion indefinite-delivery/indefinite quantity security support services contract.
