Serco Inc. has secured a single-award, $97 million indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract to continue supporting the Navy’s Submarine High Data Rate antenna systems.
Under the 10-year award from the Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division Newport, Serco will provide depot-level repair, maintenance and upgrade services. The SubHDR system enables the submarine fleet to transmit and receive secure wide-band communications, voice and data traffic, imagery and video conferencing.
“We are proud to continue our 20-year partnership with the U.S. Navy on this vital program,” said Tom Watson, CEO of Serco Inc. “This award is a direct reflection of the exceptional skill and dedication of our team. Their expertise ensures that the Navy’s submarine fleet maintains a critical communications advantage, and we are honored to be entrusted with that mission for the next decade.”
Work will be performed primarily at Serco’s production and repair facility in Ludlow, Massachusetts, with additional support at NUWC in Newport, Rhode Island. The company will also maintain its indoor near-field and compact antenna test range in Ludlow.
