Booz Allen Hamilton (NYSE: BAH) today announced it was awarded a five-year, single-award task order with a $1.58 billion ceiling to provide intelligence analysis related to countering weapons of mass destruction (CWMD). Under the Weapons of Mass Destruction Analysis, Exploitation, and Data Science Support (WAEDS) task order, awarded in September 2024, Booz Allen will apply advanced technology and tradecraft to transform CWMD missions globally.
WAEDS supports the Defense Intelligence Agency's (DIA) Defense Counterproliferation Office and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) to provide CWMD intelligence analysis, including production and dissemination, visualization, web development, business analytics, intelligence business operations, and compartmented programs support to the analytic workforce. This task order will provide the bulk of the intelligence community and the Department of Defense’s (DOD) WMD and CWMD intelligence analysis and intelligence support to critical operations through highly technical and scientific skillsets.
“As America faces the most challenging national security environment in half a century, WAEDS seeks to advance the CWMD mission with an accelerated trajectory the nation hasn’t experienced since the early 2000s,” said Lisa Bishop, a senior vice president in Booz Allen’s national security business. “The work is both foundational to the DIA mission and transformational at the same time through the technical support and expertise that we will add to this mission across multiple agencies and commands. This win is the latest example of how Booz Allen is applying advanced technology to solve the nation’s most complicated challenges and make America safer.”
