“A solicitation for the next Consolidated Afloat Networks and Enterprise Services contract is anticipated to be released by the end of this current federal fiscal year on Sept. 30 or the fiscal quarter after that, the Navy said in a contracting notice. The new contract will have a 10-year base period.
CANES is intended to act as a tactical system that consolidates and modernizes five shipboard legacy networks for command, control, intelligence and logistics applications.
Round one of awards for the CANES effort took place in August 2014 and those went to BAE Systems’ U.S. subsidiary, General Dynamics, Global Technical Systems, Northrop Grumman and Serco Group’s U.S. subsidiary.”
