McLean-based Fortune 500 global management consultant Booz Allen Hamilton Inc. won a potential $74.7 million contract with the U.S. Navy to support the Program Executive Office Unmanned and Small Combatants (PEO USC) mission, the U.S. Department of Defense announced Friday.
Under the cost-plus-fixed-fee contract, Booz Allen Hamilton will provide a single program executive for the PEO USC that will be responsible for end-to-end acquisition and maintenance of the mission capabilities of the littoral combat ship-class — a class of small surface combatants designed for near-shore environments.
Work is expected to be completed by April 2023 and will be performed in McLean and at the Washington Navy Yard.
With $7.5 billion in fiscal 2020 revenue, Booz Allen employs more than 27,600 workers globally, with about 10,000 employed in Virginia.
