“This win is a true testament to our long-standing partnership with the NGA that dates back more than three decades, ” he added, referring to the company’s 30 years of support across the agency’s many military and intelligence operations.

As project lead, Booz Allen will be working with ten small partner businesses in the areas of big data processing, 3-D visualization, remote sensing, analytics, surveillance and geospatial intelligence applications development.
