Engility has been awarded a potential four-year, $38 million contract to help the U.S. Navy determine aircraft safety requirements and prepare flight clearances.

The company said Thursday it will provide aircraft worthiness recommendations to the Naval Air Systems Command Airworthiness and CYBERSAFE Office as well as convert the flight and technical manuals of the Navy into an electronic format.

The contract has one base year and three option years.
