Serco has been awarded a $200 million contract by the US Naval Information Warfare Center Pacific to provide technology support services for anti-terrorism efforts, including deployment of the Physical Security Information Management System (PSIM).
Under the contract, Serco will continue to provide life-cycle sustainment of physical security/access control and C4I systems to ensure continuous operation and advancement of the PS2-EA, previously known as the Anti-Terrorism/Force Protection Electronic Surveillance Systems.
Additionally, Serco will provide these services for the Pentagon at naval bases across the globe. The scope of Serco’s work extends to installation, integration, testing and evaluation, maintenance, and supply/logistics support.
Additionally, Serco will be deploying the PSIM which is a smart coordinator that integrates data from various security systems and is designed to present information in a clear and accessible manner to the appropriate authorities.
