(Nasdaq: GTSI) today announced that the Army Communications and Electronic Command (CECOM) has awarded GTSI one of two contracts for its MMAD-1 acquisition. MMAD-1 is an indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) dual-award contract. GTSI's award value is $857 million, if all options are exercised by the government. Although the contract was awarded by the Army, the Navy and IRS were also instrumental in requirement development and contract award. All three agencies will be the major customers on the contract. In addition, MMAD-1 is open to all agencies within the Federal government including DOD and civilian as well as foreign military sales. The contract has a two-year base period with three one-year options for a total of five years. GTSI will provide commercial off-the shelf (COTS) high end 64-bit servers, workstations, operating systems, compilers, software applications, peripherals, local and wide area networking (hardware and software), engineering and support services (classified and unclassified), managed environment support, equipment maintenance, system upgrades, training, leasing, associated documentation, and consumables to meet the world wide requirements of the government. "This is the largest contract in GTSI's history. MMAD-1 plays to our strength in the high-end UNIX computing environment and affirms our position as a leading provider of integrated high-end products and services," said GTSI Chairman and CEO Dendy Young.
