Redlands, California—The Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Dahlgren has named ESRI an approved prime contractor on the SeaPort Enhanced (SeaPort-e) online portal. By being listed on SeaPort-e, ESRI can make available a broad range of engineering, technical, and programmatic services related to geographic information system (GIS) and information technology. ESRI can provide these services to the U.S. Navy, the U.S. Marine Corps, and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA).
SeaPort-e offers these defense organizations a fast, cost-effective, electronic procurement procedure for providing tasking orders for professional support services from commercial firms. The contracting office for SeaPort-e is NSWC Dahlgren.
