HANOVER, Md., Nov. 28, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The KeyW Holding Corporation (NASDAQ: KEYW) today announced that the General Services Administration has awarded its wholly owned subsidiary, Sotera Defense Solutions, Inc. (Sotera), a contract on its $50 billion Alliant 2 Governmentwide Acquisition Contract (GWAC). The contract is an unrestricted multiple award, indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract with a five-year base period and a five-year option.
Under the contract, the company has the opportunity to deliver IT services and solutions. Alliant 2 is a follow-on contract to the Alliant contract, which was awarded in 2007. Neither KeyW nor Sotera previously participated as a prime on the original Alliant contract.
“This award supports KeyW’s goal to partner with our Federal Government customers by offering services and solutions to modernize their mission IT-related systems and applications,” said Kirk Herdman, KeyW’s executive vice president, Corporate Strategy and Business Development. “We’re excited about the flexibility the Alliant 2 contract affords us to develop, integrate and deliver innovative solutions that meet our customers’ evolving mission needs.”
