Avineon Wins ORD IT and GIS Services Contract

April 7, 2008

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Research and Development awarded Avineon, Inc., a provider of IT, geospatial, engineering, and program management services, a Software Engineering Specialized Scientific Support (SES3) blanket purchase agreement, the company announced in a March 26 press release.

Avineon was the only small business selected for the project, which has an initial one-year period and six one-year renewal options.

The company will support an applied software engineering program that is responsive to current and future ORD strategies and business needs as well as those of partner communities. Avineon will assist ORD in developing and maintaining enterprise-wide, science-oriented, information management, IT and geographic information systems (GIS) programs for its offices, laboratories, and research centers.

"Our team's in-depth knowledge of the EPA's technical environment, culture, and business drivers uniquely positions Avineon to help the EPA meet its IT and GIS goals," said Hee Sun Choung, Avineon's senior vice president of Federal Systems.
