Systems Planning & Analysis (SPA), a leading international provider of innovative solutions in support of critical national security objectives, has been awarded a multi-option contract worth up to $24.4 million to provide advisory and assistance services to the Naval Sea Systems Command Direct Reporting Program Manager, AUKUS Integration and Acquisition Office.
AUKUS is a trilateral agreement, announced in September 2021, between Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States that will assist Australia in acquiring nuclear-powered submarines.
As the prime services provider for the U.S. AUKUS office, SPA will provide program support, engineering and maintenance planning, executive coordination, strategic advice, and operational analysis covering the program office’s transition into execution. Work will occur primarily in the Washington Navy Yard area in Washington, DC, with some work at UK and Australian partner sites.
“We are honored to be named the prime services provider for this immensely important work in support of global security,” commented SPA President Vice Admiral (ret) Terry Benedict.
“Our longstanding relationships with the U.S. and Australian submarine forces position us well to deliver high-impact results, quickly and efficiently, leveraging our unique analytic tools and highly qualified workforce.”
