BLUF: General Dynamics Information Technology, Inc. has obligated $1,608,568,595.20 to date under a Department of State contract for global security engineering and supply chain services.

The definitive contract, award number 19AQMM18C0185, was signed on September 5, 2018, and covers global security engineering and supply chain services for the Department of State. The award's base-and-all-options ceiling is approximately $2.45 billion, meaning roughly 66% of the total potential contract value has been obligated to date.

Why it matters: This is a long-running, decade-plus engagement — the period of performance stretches from June 19, 2019 through August 7, 2029 — making it one of the more durable security-services vehicles at State. For GovCon firms in physical and cyber security engineering and supply chain risk management, sustained obligation activity (most recently updated August 6, 2026) signals the agency continues to draw down against the ceiling rather than the work winding down. The contract's ten-plus-year window also underscores State's preference for long-duration security support relationships over shorter recompetes in this category.

By the numbers:

• Cumulative obligations: $1,608,568,595.20
• Base and all options value: $2,447,737,874.85
• Awarding agency: Department of State
• NAICS code: 541614 (Process, Physical Distribution, and Logistics Consulting Services)
• Product/service code: R706 (Support — Management: Logistics Support)
• Contract signed: September 5, 2018
• Period of performance: June 19, 2019 – August 7, 2029
• Set-aside: None (no set-aside used)

The contract description on file, "Global Security Engineering & Supply Chain Services," reflects work supporting the department's physical security and logistics risk posture. No small-business set-aside applies to the award.
