US Army Awards Detroit Defense $49.9 Million IDIQ for DIGS and Digital Logbook
A four-year vehicle data integration and digital logbook contract signals software as a standalone US Army procurement category.
Detroit Defense has been awarded a four-year indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract with a ceiling of US$49.9 million, through September 2030, to develop, integrate and sustain the US Army's Data Integration for Ground Systems (DIGS) and Digital Logbook programs. The award came through the Army Contracting Command–Detroit Arsenal Commercial Solutions Opening. Two initial task orders worth US$8.06 million cover DIGS for more than 20 self-propelled howitzer battalions, with another US$1.6 million to install the system on Army watercraft including LCU, LSV, MCS and MSV-L vessels.
The scope includes sustained software maintenance, installation, training and field service representatives in the continental United States and abroad. The contract, announced 2 November 2026, shows ground-vehicle data integration and digital unit records being procured as a dedicated software category through a commercial, small-business-friendly channel rather than a classic weapons platform program.
