BAE Systems is to assist in the development of next-generation geospatial intelligence capabilities for the U.S. Army Intelligence and Security Command.

Its services come under a five-year indefinite-delivery/indefinite quantity award from INSCOM for its Military Intelligence Brigade – Theatre Integrated GEOINT Divisions.

"We are proud to support the development of solutions that enhance the situational awareness and safety of our men and women in uniform," said DeEtte Gray, president of BAE Systems' Intelligence & Security sector.

Under the contract, which has a value of as much as $75 million, BAE Systems will assist in the exploitation and processing of geospatial data and develop various intelligence products for GEOINT Divisions and assist the Army with next-generation geospatial intelligence developmental and experimental intelligence collection systems and technologies.

The work will primarily be performed within the United States with some work overseas.

Additional details of the contract were not disclosed.
