*SIS GSA Advantage*

SIS Inc. Was Awarded GSA Schedule: Federal Supply Service Contract: #GS35F160CA

A GSA Schedule is a contract awarded to qualifying companies offering their products and

services to Federal, State and Local Government customers.

Why Use GSA?

 GSA Contract is favored by perspective agencies buyers because:

• Dramatically reduces acquisition lead time

• Creates increased efficiency for the Public Sector

• Pre-negotiated rates and prices results in proposals being viewed as fair and reasonable by the customer

• It is a 5 Year Contract

• Eliminates the bidding process

• Allows multiple agencies the ability to award contracts to SIS without going to the open bid market

Progress continues by the Robotics Team on a number of projects.  For the US Navy, our Team has been involved in Swarm II, which is a capabilities expansion of Swarm I that we conducted last August.  Members of the Team traveled to Mayport, Florida to brief staff members of the US Navy 4^th Fleet on Swarm II objectives and possible scenarios for demonstrations.  Additionally, a Technology Design Review was recently held and the customer was extremely pleased with the ongoing working.

For the Strategic Capabilities Office, OSD, our Team continues to work on SeaMob, which is another Swarm type event for Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USV).  In the past few weeks we have participated in a number of Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) and Design Reviews regarding the autonomy, perception suite and vessel design / production.  The Team will become even more involved in the coming months.

Scott Corey had a grand finish with the Hammerhead project!  All objectives were met with many objectives exceeding expectations.  This project has now wrapped up and has been a complete success.  Well done Scott!

Stephen Bald has been working the SwampHammer project, which is unique in that it requires Stephen to be underway from the afternoon until night time so that he can collect data on the system for both day and night under similar weather conditions.  This has led to some long days and challenging underway times because of weather.

Last but certainly not least, the Team welcomes Rob Tolentino and Christine Parrett aboard.  These two are great additions to our Team and have arrived at a perfect time to become involved in some ground breaking technology projects!
