Leidos Receives $869M Army Contract to Accelerate Military Decision Making

April 30, 2026

Using artificial intelligence, advanced networking and modular open architecture, Leidos (NYSE: LDOS) will design, build and integrate secure systems for the Pentagon that help warfighters make better, faster decisions across the electromagnetic spectrum and land, sea, air, space and cyber domains. 

The work will be done under a five-year, $869 million MACRO (Mission Awareness Capabilities Ramp-up and Optimization) II competitive contract recently awarded by the U.S. Army. 

“This program is designed to help the joint force turn growing volumes of data into clear, operationally relevant insight, with the goal of enabling warfighters to understand the battlefield and act faster than the enemy,” said Chad Haferbier, Leidos senior vice president of decision advantage. “We are excited to partner with the Army and joint partners to accelerate how we develop and integrate mission systems for multi-domain operations.” 

This effort is aligned with key elements of Leidos’ NorthStar 2030 strategy, including emphasizing decision advantage through digital modernization, developing critical mission software and supporting evolving warfighter requirements.
