The deal also includes modernization and decommissioning of existing systems, engineering design, project and program management, end-user training, troubleshooting, industrial work and operational verification services, the Pentagon said in a press release.

The term C4ISR broadly encompasses data collection and information, leading to decision-making, communication and battlespace awareness. The new contract covers all of the Naval Informatin Warfare Systems Command.
