ASRC Federal‘s ASTS subsidiary has landed a potential $42 million contract from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to provide engineering and mission operations support services for NOAA’s National Environmental Satellite, Data and Information Service.

The company said Wednesday the contract covers real-time systems engineering support work to aid NOAA’s missions as the agency transitions its operations to future polar and geostationary systems.
