The Department of War announced a five‑year, $9.7 billion agreement with Dell Federal Systems to purchase Microsoft services, expected to save $422 million annually. The contract will provide Microsoft 365, advanced cloud subscriptions, and on‑premises licensing for the War Department, the intelligence community and the U.S. Coast Guard. It replaces dozens of separate contracts, creating a single enterprise‑wide agreement and is the department’s largest technology deal to date. Scheduled to begin on June 1, the agreement includes Windows Enterprise, Office Professional Plus, and cloud and hybrid capabilities. The consolidation is expected to reduce costs for service members and civilians while maintaining the same level of services, and supports the department’s commitment to responsible use of taxpayer funds.
