Chantilly contractor will support allied naval forces
Katherine Schulte// February 28, 2024//
Chantilly-based federal contractor Amentum Services has won a $591.6 million contract from the U.S. Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) to support eligible allied naval forces, the company announced Tuesday.
Under the contract from the NAVSEA International Fleet Support Program Office, Amentum will provide life-cycle support and follow-on technical solutions — including system upgrades; systems integration support; training; and efforts related to transferring, acquiring, operating and maintaining naval vessels — to foreign military sales customers.
“As a longtime partner for the U.S. Navy, we enable technological advances and engineering solutions to provide important international fleet support and secure the interests of our nation and our allies around the world,” Jill Bruning, president of Amentum’s Engineering, Science and Technology Group, said in a statement.
Amentum has more than 35,000 employees in 79 countries. The company was founded as a spinout of AECOM’s Management Services Group in 2020 and moved its headquarters from Germantown, Maryland, to Chantilly in 2023.
