Yesterday, Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) announced that it has formed a strategic alliance with BPL Global, Ltd.

SAIC has a $10 million minority stake in BPLG as a part of the alliance.

SAIC and BPLG will focus on addressing the entire life cycle of utility customer needs through the intelligent transformation of electrical network and utility operations. From strategy consulting to large-scale solution deployments, SAIC and BPLG will market a holistic approach to addressing energy, environment, infrastructure and sustainability challenges.

“This investment and our strategic alliance with BPLG represent further strides in SAIC’s strategy to provide life-cycle capabilities to the rapidly evolving power industry, following our recent acquisition of R.W. Beck Group, Inc., ” said SAIC senior vice president and business unit general manager J.T.
