new office for One of America’s Fastest Growing New Companies

 

Orlando, Florida – SGIS announced today that it has opened a new office in the Orlando area. SGIS ranked No. 13 on PricewaterhouseCoopers’ and Entrepreneur magazine’s Hot 100 list of The Fastest Growing New Companies in America earlier this year.

 

The new SGIS office, in the Quadrangle Office Park, is minutes from Research Park and the University of Central Florida.  Vice Presidents Mark Moore and John Mahony chose this area to better position the company within the simulation and training industry, as they are heavily focused on supporting this growing sector. 


“We are very excited about the opening of our new Orlando office.” Mahony said.  “We are in an ideal location to service many of the companies that we are working with, in both the defense and commercial markets.   We can literally walk out our front door, and reach many of our clients within 5 minutes.   We are also happy to be in an office that is close to four times the size of our previous location in Avalon Park.  This will allow us to continue and expand on the growth we have experienced over the past three years”.

 

Orlando is one of the most important locations to our company.” Mark Moore added. “Newsweek just recognized Orlando as one of the three most innovative cities in the World.   We know Orlando is the Simulations Capital of the World and this is an area we have come to specialize in.  As our growth in this industry has increased this move became necessary and essential.”

 

With revenues in excess of $26 million in 2005, a growth factor of over 5,300% within the first 3 years of business, SGIS is rapidly climbing the ladder of success.  SGIS has continued its growth trend, already growing revenues by more than 60% in 2006.   Much of the company’s success can be attributed to expanding into various market segments with a diverse set of service offerings.   

 

In March of 2005, SGIS was awarded a 5 year contract with NASA/JPL, worth $75 million.  SGIS was awarded one of three prime contracts out of over 100 qualified companies.  A large driver for the growth of SGIS has been the intelligence services the company offers, which provides Intelligence Analysis, Management Support and Information Technology services to various agencies within the intelligence community.  The company’s intelligence related work has grown by more than 600% since the beginning of 2005.
