AMSEC LLC wins Navy's contract

Huntington Ingalls Industries (NYSE:HII) announced today that its AMSEC LLC subsidiary has been awarded a contract by the U.S. Navy to provide logistical support to naval operating, joint and coalition forces, the shipbuilding group said in a press release.

AMSEC was awarded a four-year contract that has a potential value of $24 million if fully funded and all options are exercised. Services and products for the Navy Expeditionary Logistics Support Group (NAVELSG) include asset management, integrated logistics support, and overhaul, kitting, equipment and network support services.

AMSEC’s work will be performed primarily at Cheatham Annex near the Naval Weapons Station Yorktown, with support from AMSEC’s other locations in Virginia.

“We have an outstanding relationship with our customer that has developed over six years of providing them with world-class logistics and mission-critical services,” said William Rumschlag, AMSEC’s division manager of engineering, training and asset management solutions. “Our subject matter experts will continue to support the mission of NAVELSG.”

AMSEC has more than 2,000 employees at 35 locations worldwide. AMSEC’s expertise includes marine engineering, naval architecture, shipyard industrial planning and design, HM&E (hull, mechanical and electrical) and C4I (command, control, communication, computers and intelligence) installation and support, and waterfront systems testing and maintenance. AMSEC’s knowledge spans across life-cycle integrated logistics services, including technical manual development, network, data and inventory management, instructional system design, and mobile training solutions. AMSEC is a certified CMMI-Level 3 provider of enterprise software design and development, cyber security, database and web services.
