ARINC Participates with AT&T for GSA Networx ContractsSeptember 12, 2007Annapolis, Maryland—ARINC Incorporated will provide radio communications and networking services to federal government agencies as a subcontractor to AT&T Government Solutions, a business unit within AT&T, Inc. Earlier this year, AT&T Government Solutions was awarded Networx Universal and Enterprise contracts by the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA). ARINC will work with AT&T to compete for task orders and statements of work for land mobile radio (LMR), telecommunications, networking, and related services. As part of the AT&T Networx team, which also includes Northrop Grumman, SRA International, GTSI, Global Crossing, Bechtel, and EDS, ARINC will provide engineering, design, and implementation of LMR systems, and operational support and management. “ARINC brings over 75 years of experience in radio systems to the AT&T team, including mission-critical and interoperability systems in use for industry and government,” stated Ruth Hough, ARINC Vice President, Network Solutions. “We look forward to working with AT&T to bring outstanding communications solutions to their Networx customers.” The Networx Universal and Enterprise IDIQ contracts address a federal government market of $20 billion over the next 10 years, and will replace expiring GSA Federal Technology Service 2001 (FTS2001) and FTS2001 Crossover contract vehicles. The award gives AT&T and its Networx team members the right to compete for specific task orders and statements of work within the scope of the Networx Universal and Enterprise contracts.
