Booz Allen Hamilton (NYSE:BAH) announced it has won eight major task orders to provide management and technical services to the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) through the Enterprise Support to Management and Resources for Technical Services (ESMARTS) contract. ESMARTS is an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with a maximum value of $873 million, and will provide services to NGA through December 2016. Booz Allen provided similar support to NGA under the predecessor SMARTS contract initiated in 2006.
