NewsMarch 29, 2021
HERNDON, Va. Peraton has won a position on a new indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quality (IDIQ) contract supporting Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Pacific with advanced technical development of its maritime Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) and Information Operations (IO) activities. The IDIQ is worth up to $250 million over a five-year period.
According to the company, Peraton will leverage its experience supporting NIWC Pacific's various unmanned systems programs to bring increased autonomy and integration of advanced technology to counter the evolving threats faced by the U.S. Navy.
NIWC Pacific provides technological and engineering support critical to information warfare for the Navy, as well as for Marine Corps, Air Force, Army, and Coast Guard programs. Systems development and support includes basic research and prototype development through systems engineering, and integration to life cycle support of fielded systems.
Peraton officials claim the company is looking forward to competing on task orders where Peraton will partner with NIWC Pacific to rapidly prototype, integrate, develop, and produce systems that will be valuable to aid in the warfighters' ability to perform ISR and IO missions from the seabed to space.
