BAE Systems wins JIEDDO role

Issue No. 1 | January 01-15, 2012

BAE Systems will provide a range of services to support the US Department of Defense’ Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat Organization (JIEDDO) as part of a new indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity support contract. The company will participate in bids for a series of task orders over the next five years. The total potential value is approximately $900 million for all companies involved.

BAE Systems and a team of subcontractors will offer services including research, analysis, training, operations support and the sustainment of information technology. These services will aid JIEDDO’s efforts to counter terrorist and other organisations from using improvised explosive devices.

“This contract is critical to protecting our uniformed men and women in harm’s way,” said Scott Black, Vice President and General Manager for Global Mission Solutions at BAE Systems Support Solutions. “We have a strong record of performance serving JIEDDO, and we’re ready to continue to support its mission as needed.”
