Leidos has received a follow-on contract to support the geospatial requirements, standards and systems across the US Army, the company announced on 7 March.
The follow-on cost-plus-fixed-fee and firm-fixed-price contract worth $200 million has a five-year period of performance and the work will be performed in Alexandria, Virginia.
