SAIC Wins NASA Systems & Software Assurance Services 2 Deal
Read MoreHide Full Article
Science Applications (SAIC - Free Report) recently secured the Systems and Software Assurance Services 2 (“SAS2”) contract, worth $170 million, from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (“NASA”).
Under the five-year contract, Science Applications will continue to perform independent verification and validation (IV&V) of space systems and software. The company will also provide safety & mission assurance, software assurance and mission protection services to the American space agency.
SAIC's expertise in space engineering solutions will aid NASA to accomplish milestones in its ongoing human space exploration programs, Earth science and planetary science missions.
Science Applications is currently focusing on the federal government marketplace and capturing more market share. It intends to drive operational excellence by intensively focusing on its organic and inorganic growth strategy, and strengthening existing customer relationships while building newer ones. Increased federal spending is anticipated to accelerate the pace of contract awards, which, in turn, will be beneficial for SAIC’s top-line growth.
