Mission Support Alliance (MSA) has earned its highest award fee since it became the Hanford Site’s services contractor in 2009. The Department of Energy announced late Monday it was awarding MSA $20.4 million, or about 94 percent of the maximum $21.7 million available for fiscal 2017.
That was more than the $19.2 million, or 91 percent of the available fee, MSA earned in fiscal 2016, and the $18.8 million, or 89 percent of the available fee, it earned in fiscal 2015.
“This year’s successes highlight our commitment to delivering the right solution at the right time, and for the right value, which helps enable progress on Hanford cleanup,” MSA President Bob Wilkinson said in a statement.
Mission Support Alliance provides Hanford emergency response and training services through the Hanford Fire Department and Hanford Patrol. It is responsible for land management; fleet and road maintenance; water, electric, and other utilities; and cybersecurity and information management. It also provides Hanford portfolio management services, collecting and organizing data to help DOE plan and sequence cleanup work.
In its fee determination scorecard, DOE cited eight areas of significant achievement for MSA and three areas where improvements were needed. “There were no significant deficiencies,” the scorecard said.
Mission Support Alliance holds a 10-year contract valued at about $3 billion that expires in May 2019. Leidos owns 88 percent of MSA, with Centerra Group owning the remainder.
