Falls Church-based federal contractor General Dynamics Information Technology Inc. announced Tuesday that it received a $298 million blanket purchase agreement by the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts (AOUSC) Case Management Systems Office.

GDIT will also put in place a development, security and operations approach to speed and secure software delivery, the company said in a news release.

“We have supported AOUSC with advanced technology capabilities and services for more than 25 years, and this contract gives us another opportunity to further advance its mission,” John Ludecke, GDIT’s vice president and general manager of the federal civilian division, said in a statement.

GDIT is a subsidiary of Reston-based Fortune 500 aerospace and defense contractor General Dynamics Corp., an aerospace and defense company that employs more than 100,000 people worldwide and generated $38.5 billion in revenue in 2021.

As chief retail and delivery officer at the postal service, Seaver led operations of more than 450,000 employees at more than 30,000 locations nationally, and was responsible for operations of a delivery fleet of more than 280,000 vehicles serving 160 million daily destinations. As CIO, Seaver led the service’s digital transformation to modernize technologies and also oversaw investment in and development and deployment of technologies to set up services that included Informed Delivery, which gives residential consumers a digital preview of mail.
