ITT part of team awarded NASA range operations contract

ITT Corporation, as a subcontractor to LJT & Associates, Inc., is part of a team that has been awarded a contract to provide comprehensive range operations services at the NASA Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia. The award is for a five-year base period with an estimated value of $117 million to the entire LJT team.

Work will be performed by ITT's Systems business, based in Colorado Springs, Colo., a global leader in providing maintenance, sustainment and operations support for U.S. government facilities, vehicles, equipment, ranges, communication networks and information systems. ITT's share of the work from this award will include systems engineering services, as well as operations and sustainment for radar, telemetry, communications and meteorological systems.

"This is an important strategic win for ITT on several levels," said Michael Gulino, president and general manager of ITT Systems. "It adds yet another range to the portfolio of launch and test facilities we support, and also expands our business with NASA, a customer we hope to serve further in the future."
