By GlobalDataGDIT defence senior vice president Brian Sheridan said: “Our national security depends on the ability to connect, share information and act without delay. We look forward to delivering a next-generation network infrastructure to our Pacific forces so they can communicate, operate and respond with speed and precision in the battlefield.”
GDIT has previously provided the US Air Force with services in areas such as cybersecurity, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, enterprise IT modernisation, and digital engineering for over five decades.
These contributions have supported operational agility and information sharing for both Airmen and Guardians.
In addition to the BIM initiative, GDIT received an enterprise IT modernisation contract from the US Strategic Command (STRATCOM) in September last year.
The $1.5bn contract runs for a one-year base period with six possible option years.
Under this agreement, GDIT will use its digital engineering expertise to reduce expenses, improve efficiency, and strengthen cooperation among mission partners.
