Apptis Picked to Provide Network Operations Support for the U.S. Central Command

Apptis, a provider for IT services and solutions for U.S. government agencies, has been chosen for the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) to complete a multi-year task order valued at approximately $25 million. The deal involves critical network operations and information assurance support to the U.S. Central Command (USCENTCOM) at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, Florida and Bahrain.

 

Bert Noting, Chairman and CEO of Apptissaid, “Working directly with the USCENTCOM we are able to provide mission critical communication support for our men and women on the frontlines as they continue to carry out their work for peace and stability in hostile regions of the world.”

 

As per terms of the agreement between the DISA and Apptis, 24x7 Tier 1 and 2 network operations and help desk support is provided by Apptis to ensure continuous USCENTCOM command and control communications systems and are made available to the warfighter. With enhanced network management infrastructure, the company provides services for continuous availability, classified and unclassified communication flow securely and efficiently through voice, data, video and satellite to command centers within SWA and the United States.

Being selected to perform this effort now demonstrates their confidence that we will continue to deliver superior services,” said Michael Carroll, senior vice president for DISA/DGS (News - Alert) & DoD Accounts for Apptis, in a statement.

 

Carroll went on: “With highly sensitive operations throughout the world, USCENTCOM requires sophisticated technology systems to ensure its people are able to complete their missions. This work will provide Apptis another great opportunity to demonstrate its deep expertise in the area of telecommunications by providing state-of-the-art network management support and technical assistance across different locations taking part in real world war fighting operations.”
