Huntington Ingalls Industries to Support New Management Contract at Los Alamos National Laboratory
July 10 2018 - 01:30PM
Huntington Ingalls Industries (NYSE:HII) announced today that the
U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) National Nuclear Security
Administration (NNSA) has issued a notice to proceed into
transition for the management transition process at Los Alamos
National Laboratory (LANL) in Los Alamos, New Mexico, to Triad
National Security LLC. After a four-month transition period, the
team will assume full management and operational responsibility for
the laboratory.
Triad National Security is a joint venture comprised of
Battelle, Texas A&M University Systems and the University of
California. The Triad team includes two integrated subcontractors,
HII and Fluor, and three small business subcontractors, Longenecker
& Associates, Merrick-SMSI and TechSource.
“We are very proud to be an integrated team member in support of
the critical NNSA mission at LANL,” said Michael Lempke, president
of the Nuclear & Environmental group in HII’s Technical
Solutions division. “We look forward to drawing on our extensive
experience in managing complex projects that are crucial to
national security, the advancement of science and technology, and
protecting the environment.”
The contract includes a five-year base period and five one-year
options with an estimated contract value, if all options are
exercised, of approximately $20 billion. The current M&O
contract for LANL, held by Los Alamos National Security (LANS),
expires on Sept. 30 and will be extended to allow for a four-month
transition period to provide stability for the workforce employed
under the current contract and to ensure efficient continuity of
operations for the vital NNSA and other national security missions
performed there.
LANL’s primary mission is to enhance national security by
ensuring the safety and reliability of the U.S. nuclear stockpile,
developing technologies to reduce threats from weapons of mass
destruction, and solving problems related to energy, environment,
infrastructure, health and global security concerns.
