The five-year indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contract (IDIQ) contract, Luno A, is a $290 million follow-on to the Economic Indicator Monitoring contract, which utilized machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques, and accelerated analytic workflows, to manage commercially purchased unclassified geospatial data. The follow-on contract adds new context to analytic assessments by characterizing things such as worldwide economic, environmental and military activities.
"BlueHalo is proud to expand our support to NGA as one of the vendors selected to the Luno A contract," said Brian Morrison, BlueHalo Portfolio President and Corporate Executive Vice President. "Our mature intel capabilities - ranging from signals intelligence to open-source threat intelligence - coupled with our deep expertise in utilizing machine learning and artificial intelligence in an era of big data, make BlueHalo an ideal partner for NGA as they work to pull actionable intelligence from a deluge of unclassified data."
Under the scope of the contract, contractors will utilize the commercial marketplace to acquire source imagery and data, allowing the agency to leverage the multitude of commercial GEOINT sources that have not been acquired by NGA, the National Reconnaissance Office, or other U.S. Government entities. That data will be used to monitor infrastructure on a continental or global scale, survey country-level areas for specific types of activity and facilities, monitor city-sized areas for changes in infrastructure, and provide frequent updates of equipment and objects at installations.
