The three-year contract is the latest in a series of awards the service has made for its enterprise IT infrastructure modernization effort.
Amazon Web Services won a $581.3 million contract earlier this week as part of the Air Force’s Cloud One program.
The three-year contract supports the Air Force’s initiative to provide cloud services and hosting to its various components. It expires in December 2028.
The Air Force is using the Cloud One program to modernize its IT infrastructure. The AWS contract was a sole source acquisition.
The Cloud One website also lists cloud service providers Google Cloud, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Microsoft Azure as participants in the program.
In addition to the CSPs, the Air Force awarded a $743 million application modernization contract to Booz Allen Hamilton in May, and a $455 million contract to Leidos in December for systems architecture and common shared services.
