(click to view full) Lockheed Martin Integrated Systems and Solutions of Gaithersburg, MD received a cost-plus-award fee modification for the development, integration, and installation of the command, control, battle management and communications capability for the Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS). This modification extends the period of performance, and increases the agreement value by $308 million. Lockheed’s work is believed to be central to the integration of formerly stand-alone system elements into an effective, layered BMDS, and the interoperability of missile defense command and control operations at the various combatant commanders’ sites. The current effort is expected to be complete on December 31, 2005. The Missile Defense Agency issued the change, and work under this modification will be funded using Fiscal Years 2006, 2007 and 2008 funds (HQ0006-02-9-0002).
