CHANTILLY, Va., April 14, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Amentum (NYSE: AMTM), a leading global technical and engineering solutions provider, has secured a $247.6 million contract from the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) Air Combat Command (ACC), Acquisition Management and Integration Center (AMIC), Counternarcotics and Global Threats (CN&GT) Division. Amentum will leverage AI/Machine Learning-enabled tools and advanced analytical techniques to enable the DOD and partner agencies to deny, disrupt, destroy, or defeat finance systems and networks that negatively affect U.S. interests.

"Our team’s expertise and innovative solutions will play a pivotal role in identifying and disrupting the unlawful financial networks of America’s adversaries, ultimately enhancing the safety and security of our nation and its allies," said Mark Walter, President of Amentum Engineering & Technology Group.

Under this contract, Amentum will deliver solutions to the DOD in the counter-transnational organized crime, counter-drug, and counter-terrorism missions. Directed by the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense Counternarcotics and Stabilization Policy, Amentum's highly skilled personnel will assist U.S. government agencies in disrupting and degrading illegal financial networks that support transnational criminal and terrorist organizations. Amentum’s efforts ensure the client’s mission stays ahead of potential adversaries. The top priority for these efforts will be disrupting the illicit supply chain for synthetic opioids and associated money laundering.

This win highlights the DOD’s continued trust in Amentum’s longstanding expertise in using the most suitable advanced tools and techniques to solve issues of national significance. The contract spans 96 months, with an additional 4-month transition period, and is part of the CN&GT Multi-Award IDIQ, Operations and Logistics Pool.
