KBR to support ADF Secure Deployed Networks
The Future Deployed ICT Capability
KBR’s Mission IT & Security Solutions business unit (Sigma Bravo), has been awarded part of a $175 million program to perform sustainment services for the Australian Defence Force (ADF) Secure Deployed Networks that support Naval, Land and Coalition operations. The services we will deliver include supply-chain management, identity and access management, and technical services to enable convergence of these networks.
Key deliverables of the program include providing ICT, engineering, and logistics support for the ADF Chief Information Officer Group (CIOG), in Canberra, Sydney and Brisbane. This work is expected to be performed over three years with our personnel performing technical services to sustain and uplift these warfighter networks.
“This win bolsters the sovereign industry capabilities of our Mission IT and Security Solutions business and fosters growth in Australian industry through our partnering with oobe, an innovative local company, specialising in cloud computing and security,” said Rob Hawketts, Vice President, Government Solutions – Australia.
