Akima’s Truestone subsidiary has secured a potential five-year, $194 million contract from the U.S. Army to support the service branch’s Tobyhanna Army Depot in Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains region.
Under the award, Truestone will provide logistics and engineering technician services to Tobyhanna, which represents the largest full-service Department of Defense maintenance facility, Akima announced from its Herndon, Virginia headquarters on Thursday.
“Supporting warfighter readiness has been a long-standing focus for Akima. We are proud to continue our support to the U.S. Army delivering quality services to Tobyhanna in support of the DOD’s mission to empower the soldier with winning C5ISR capabilities,” stated Duncan Greene, president of Akima’s mission systems, engineering and technology unit.
Tobyhanna, which falls under the Army Communications Electronics Command, is a provider of logistics offerings regarding command, control, communications, computers, cyber, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance systems for the DOD. It holds a number of capabilities, such as full-spectrum support for sustainment, overhaul and repair, fabrication and manufacturing and engineering design and development.
Also included in the facility’s portfolio are systems integration, technology insertion and modification services as well as international field aid for U.S. warfighters.
Contracting activities are intended to progress Tobyhanna’s maintenance mission of all-encompassing sustainment, which comprises fabrication, repair and overhaul of numerous electronic systems and associated equipment.
Truestone was awarded this contract under the Responsive Strategic Sourcing for Services vehicle.
Last year, Akima booked multiple contracts to enhance various federal installations. In December, Akima Range Readiness Operations, a joint venture between Akima and Amentum, won a $333.9 million Air Force award to provide operations and management services for Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma. The contract was awarded through the USAF’s largest facility operations and management contract.
Earlier, Akima Infrastructure Services received a $63 million contract from Consolidated Nuclear Security to increase staff proficiency in engineering, profession and technical areas at two Department of Energy facilities.
