General Dynamics Information Technology Inc. has been awarded a modification worth $39,198,688 to an existing cost-plus-fixed-fee contract to sustain the Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System, the Department of Defense announced. The modification provides a one-year base performance period and includes four option periods of three months each.
If the Navy exercises every option within the modification, the total value attributable to this contract action would rise to $79,315,988. The Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System is identified as the service's principal personnel management platform, supporting active and reserve sailors across the globe.
The Navy will obligate $3,870,000 in fiscal 2026 operations and maintenance funds at the time the modification is awarded. Work under the modification will be performed primarily in New Orleans, Louisiana, which accounts for 60% of the effort, and in Arlington, Virginia, which accounts for the remaining 40%.
The contract modification, if all option periods are executed, would extend through May 14, 2028. The Naval Information Warfare Systems Command, based in San Diego, California, is listed as the contracting activity overseeing the work.
The award was issued on a sole-source basis under 10 U.S. Code 3204(a)(1), a statute that permits non-competitive procurement when only one responsible source is available to meet the government’s requirements. General Dynamics Information Technology is headquartered in Falls Church, Virginia.
Context and implications - The modification continues funding for a mission-critical personnel management system used across the Navy's active and reserve components. The structure of the award - a cost-plus-fixed-fee arrangement with multiple short option periods - ties near-term funding and program continuation to exercised options and future obligations.
Contract administration - Naval Information Warfare Systems Command in San Diego is the contracting authority responsible for administering the modification and any subsequent option exercises that extend the performance period to 2028.
