RESTON, Va., October 25, 2023 /CSRwire/ - Leidos (NYSE:LDOS), a FORTUNE^® 500 science and technology leader, was recently awarded the Strategic Climate Sustainability and Resilience Services (SCSRS) contract to lead a mission resilience-focused transformation for the U.S. Department of Defense’s (DoD) resource management processes.

The Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense (ODASD) Energy, Installations and Environment (EI&E) envisions an optimized approach to ensure mission requirements while also driving sustainable resource management. The new Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) is intended to integrate ongoing efforts and maximize opportunities for resilient and efficient resources. The contract vehicle has a 12-month base period of performance followed by four 12-month option periods. The award holds an estimated value of $100 million if all options are exercised.

“We’re honored to lead the DoD through its transition to a more sustainable future, with an unwavering commitment to advancing mission execution across all operational domains,” said Grant Kim, Senior Vice President and Operations Manager at Leidos. “Leidos takes great pride in leveraging our capabilities to support global missions across government agencies and the commercial energy sector.”

Under the SCSRS contract, Leidos will bring together experts in climate science, mitigation and adaptation to integrate climate resilience into the DoD’s core functions to preserve and enhance mission performance. The company will also provide a pathway to understanding and reducing DoD’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This will include new insights into Scope 3 supply chain emissions across DoD’s operations.

The Leidos team, which includes McKinsey & Co., ICF, and Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI), will serve as a strategic partner, collaborator, advisor and implementor to the DoD. The work will focus on Department climate, sustainability and resilience initiatives with science, data, and innovation. Additionally, it will focus on shaping effective communication strategies and facilitating organizational change to align with the imperatives of climate sustainability.

This award follows Leidos’ Climate Data Analytics Framework (CDAF), a multi-year and multi-million dollar technology investment, which encompasses solutions for climate data storage, cataloging, stewardship, processing, analysis, visualization, delivery, and reporting.
