Vienna, VA (September 10, 2007) – SGIS has been awarded a position on an engineering and acquisition contract in support of Serco and the United States Navy. The work will be performed at the San Diego Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center (SPAWAR). The contract is valid until August 2010.

The scope of work that SGIS will cover entails engineering and acquisition support for Naval electronic surveillance systems during their life-cycle. SGIS will also provide technical expertise to the Program Executive Offices, Naval Installation Command, Naval Intelligence Command and other Department of Defense agencies as well as the Department of Homeland Security and United States Coast Guard. SGIS will serve other Government activities as required.

“We are proud of the work we do for the United States Navy and honored to have been chosen as a subcontractor by Serco,” said SGIS Vice President Linda Beardsley. “This is an excellent opportunity to offer our Acquisition and Engineering expertise to the US Navy and also further develop our support for them.”

SGIS has extensive experience supporting SPAWAR. Earlier this year the Space and Naval Warfare (SPAWAR) Systems Center, Charleston awarded SGIS a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Automated Messaging Services (FAMS) Engineering, Operations and Support prime contract. As a result of this experience and the depth of SGIS resources in the engineering services arena, Serco chose SGIS as a teammate on this contract.

SGIS has teamed with numerous organizations within the Intelligence, Homeland Security, Defense and Space communities to form alliances needed for successful missions. The company specializes in the areas of Information Technology, Engineering, Intelligence Solutions, Global Telecommunications and Logistics. SGIS partnered with the United States Government and joined the counter-terrorism and counter-intelligence effort, quickly becoming a major component of several government agencies’ support teams. SGIS also provides some of the highest quality Intelligence Analysis and Border Control services available in the country. The company’s teams of highly trained and security cleared experts work diligently to prevent terrorist attacks within the United States and reduce our country’s vulnerability to terrorism. SGIS also deploys with the troops they support. SGIS supports critical services for the U.S. Military, the Department of Defense (DoD), the Pentagon, the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) and NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), to name a few.
