November 04, 2026

Serco, the international provider of critical government services, has been awarded a task order to support the U.S. Army's Command Post Modernisation (CPMod) programme delivering mobile, scalable, and agile command and control capabilities to tactical formations.

Issued under the Army's Responsive Strategic Sourcing for Services (RS3) contract, the task order expands Serco's role in a programme the company has supported since 2019. 

Serco will provide programme management, engineering, integration, testing, logistics, training, and sustainment to support a broad range of potential operational deployments.

Key responsibilities include:

• Integrating hardware and software onto tactical vehicle platforms

To support this work, Serco expects to add more than 200 job roles.

Anthony Kirby, Serco Group Chief Executive, said: "We are incredibly proud to support the U.S. Army in this modernisation programme, delivering mobile, scalable, and agile command and control capabilities to field operations, increasing the number and speed of deployments, underpinned by technical innovation.

" This reflects our deep technical expertise and our role as a trusted defence partner in supporting the U.S. Army to transform how commanders operate on today’s battlefield."
