CACI International Inc. reports it has been selected by the U.S. Navy to provide logistics support services to the Navy's Military Sealift Command.

Services to be rendered worldwide include fleet logistics operations, acquisition logistics, sustainment logistics, logistics systems and data management, ordnance management, and supply chain management.

The Worldwide Logistics Services contract is a multiple-award indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity award with a one-year base period of performance and four one-year options. It has a ceiling value of $37 million.

"With the Worldwide Logistics Services contract, CACI is pleased to continue our long-standing support for the Military Sealift Command," said John Mengucci, CACI's chief operating officer and president of U.S. Operations. "Our outstanding certifications and use of best practices will help increase the Navy's capability to provide ships that are always ready for tasking around the globe."

The Navy's Military Sealift Command is the leading provider of ocean transportation for the Navy and the rest of the Department of Defense and operates about 110 ships, which transport materials such as fuel and equipment.
