The $133,404,000 agreement includes a one-year base ordering period with four one-year optional ordering periods through December 2021.
“This is a great win for DLT and Red Hat that will allow the Navy and Marine Corps to access leading open source technology while optimizing the procurement and management of the software through DLT’s Software Program Center,” said Joe Perrino, Senior Director, Enterprise Platforms. “With DLT’s market leading expertise and long-standing relationship with Red Hat, the DON will be able to achieve mission-critical objectives and demonstrate the ease of bringing IT to federal agencies.”
