WASHINGTON, 13 Aug. 2010. Raytheon Company won a task order for total logistics support of the Battle Command Sustainment Support System (BCS3) under the Battle Command Development indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract. This program includes an 11-month base period and two 12-month option periods through March 2013. The contract value is approximately $90 million, if all options are exercised.

"This important win positions our team for a wide range of task order awards across all the Battle Command Development program domains," says Andy Zogg, Raytheon Network Centric Systems vice president of Command and Control Systems.

BCS3 is a logistics command and control system designed to improve situational awareness and the speed of decision-making for warfighters. It fuses information needed to define the Logistics Common Operating Picture in a tactical environment. BCS3 provides a visual map of crucial sustainment information for warfighters.

Raytheon, with the support of its teammates Tapestry Solutions, INTECON, and Software Professional Solutions, will supply necessary field support, help desk, system and server maintenance, and training to users fielded at locations around the globe.
