Jacobs of Dallas, TX announced on March 20 has been awarded a contract to support the U.S Army Intelligence Center of Excellence (USAICoE) at Fort Huachuca by providing training development and support for the Army and other Department of Defense agencies.
Jacobs will
provide education and support for the delivery of intelligence-related military
occupational specialties and professional development with modules to include
classroom, performance-oriented hands-on/practical exercise and
simulation/virtual and/or field exercise training. The Army estimates the
contract value at $785 million across seven and half years, if all options are
exercised.
“Jacobs has a long history of supporting the U.S. Army, ranging from research and development to test and evaluation, sustainment and support of complex weapons systems, and now to expanding our support to training and military intelligence education,” said Jacobs Aerospace, Technology and Nuclear Senior Vice President Jennifer Richmond. “This award constitutes another successful milestone in our strategy to grow our portfolio of solutions to the U.S. Army and U.S. Intelligence Community as we grow our community engagement at Fort Huachuca, which when combined with other recent contract awards supporting the Army’s Electronic Proving Ground and the Joint Interoperability Test Center, creates a significant Jacobs presence in the Sierra Vista area and provides synergy for our customers.”
Work will primarily be performed at Fort Huachuca in Arizona with additional work at Davis Monthan AFB in Tucson, Arizona; Corry Naval Station in Pensacola, Florida; and Goodfellow AFB in San Angelo, Texas.
