Reston-based General Dynamics Corp.’s information technology business has secured a potential four-year, $241 million task order to help the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services implement a multicloud computing environment.

The cloud products and tool award, which has a one-year base period plus three one-year options, covers the procurement of instances from multiple service providers, said the company on Nov. 30. CMS plans to adopt Microsoft Azure Government and Amazon Web Services’ GovCloud platforms in efforts to modernize care delivery processes via the Healthcare.gov and Medicare.gov sites.

Amy Gilliland, president of General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT), said the award continues the company’s four-decade partnership with the agency.
