LMI will develop a suite of tools designed to support the documentation of U.S. service personnel health risks under a three-year, $12.8M contract.

The company said Wednesday its future toolkit will work boost the timeliness and accuracy of documentation that covers occupational and environmental health risks.

Commanders will use this toolkit to achieve situational awareness across military health risks, with tools for automated health risk assessment, algorithm monitoring and information management.
