Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) has been selected as one of the prime contractors to provide Command and Control Applications and Information Services Development (C2AD) services to the US Air Force.

Awarded by the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC), the multiple award indefinite delivery / indefinite quantity (ID/IQ) contract features a six-year performance period and is valued at $249m for all seven prime contractors.

Under the contract, the company will provide C2AD services for air, space and cyberspace domains to the Air Combat Command (ACC), which serves as the primary force provider of combat airpower to US warfighting commands besides supporting global implementation of national security strategy.

The services facilitate the migration of capabilities from older, antiquated applications and hardware to a contemporary infrastructure using modern tools, techniques and processes.

"Under the contract, the company will provide C2AD services for air, space and cyberspace domains to the Air Combat Command."

SAIC senior vice president and business unit general manager Dan Harris said the company will deliver applications and information services that help air force personnel to produce decision-quality information at the right place and time.
