The U.S. Army and Federal Civilian agencies need a rapid, seamless technology acquisition process to obtain the hardware equipment and services they need to achieve mission success. The Common Hardware Systems 6th Generation (CHS-6) contract provides flexible, low-cost purchasing that allows the Department of Defense (DoD) and all Military service branches to streamline the procurement of Commercial IT (CommIT) products and solutions.
Through CHS-6, the DoD and Federal Government can expand access to critical information and improve decision making with Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) technology solutions. These solutions allow the Army and other Military branches to optimize their logistic capabilities by improving supply chain resilience and boosting the operational readiness of warfighters.
By standardizing tactical equipment across the DoD, the CHS-6 program allows agencies to integrate CommIT into their networks to build and support combat systems, ruggedized servers, satellite communications (SATCOM), aviation devices, drones and more. Additionally, CHS-6 supports Government network modernization goals with IT solutions that improve battlefield interoperability and agency connectivity.
CHS-6 is a $7.9B dollar Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract that has been awarded to Leidos for a period of 10 years. Leidos utilizes AI and predictive analytics to deliver a resilient rapid fulfillment model that combines speed, scale and security to help agencies expand operational visibility.
