The Government Accountability Office has cleared General Dynamics Information Technology as the awardee of all initial task orders under a Department of the Air Force contract for various security services, from personnel to cyber defense.
The $4.5 billion Security Support Services indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract has a base period of performance of five years and an option period of five years. The contract goes into effect on Nov. 15, GDIT said Monday.
The company was chosen to provide security support related to information, personnel, communications, counterintelligence and cyber activities.
GDIT was initially awarded a spot on the IDIQ in February 2021, along with ManTech and Northrop Grumman. However, protests from competitors delayed the project until the issues were resolved last month.
