Redlands, California — The Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Dahlgren has named ESRI an approved prime contractor on the SeaPort Enhanced (SeaPort-e) online portal. By being listed on SeaPort-e, ESRI can make available a broad range of engineering, technical, and programmatic services related to geographic information system (GIS) and information technology. ESRI can provide these services to the U.S. Navy, the U.S. Marine Corps, and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA).
SeaPort-e offers these defense organizations a fast, cost-effective, electronic procurement procedure for providing tasking orders for professional support services from commercial firms. The contracting office for SeaPort-e is NSWC Dahlgren.
"The contract will provide our community of Naval Service and Marine customers with unprecedented access to ESRI services," said Greg Mader, manager of Defense Services at ESRI. "We previously worked as a subcontractor with several of our partners on SeaPort-e. Now we can contract directly with SeaPort-e authorized users."
Seven companies will work as subcontractors with ESRI to provide the services available through the portal. The ESRI SeaPort-e team includes Zekiah Technologies, Inc.; ProLogic Inc.; Penobscot Bay Media LLC; Next Wave Systems LLC; Sphere Analytical Solutions; 39 Degrees North; and Spiral Solutions and Technologies, Inc.
