CONTRACT NEWS IN BRIEF

November 3, 2003 by

Oct 03. ITT Industries Night Vision has won a contract from the UK MoD to supply Generation 3 night vision equipment to UK military forces. This contract is for the supply of 2176 systems which includes production and delivery of ITT’s F6015 Monocular Night Vision Device (MNVD), as well as night vision test sets, training/logistics support, and items to upgrade 3500 night vision equipment already in service. The key factor in the Company’s selection as the winner of the recent contract award was the high quality and high performance of ITT’s night vision equipment. ITT’s past performance on contracts demonstrated the Company’s customer responsiveness – specifically, its commitment to an accelerated production schedule that enabled UK forces to meet urgent operational requirements. In addition to ITT’s product quality and delivery performance, the rapid responsiveness of ITT’s engineering staff has further strengthened relations with the UK MoD.

Navy has awarded General Dynamics Advanced Information Systems a $100,098,000 modification under a previously awarded cost-plus-incentive-fee contract to provide for the fiscal year 2004 TRIDENT II fire control omnibus contract.

Contract performance covers a three-year base period (including a 60 day phase-in), with two, two-year option periods. The contract maximum for each individual contract is $500,000,000 but this figure represents a combined maximum for all ITES FA-2 awards.
