SULLIVAN Wins Key Contract to Support DAPS Facilities, Defense Logistics Agency

San Diego-based firm Sullivan International Group, Inc. announced today that the firm has won a contract award to provide professional services to the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Document Automation & Production Service (DAPS). DAPS is responsible for document automation and printing within the Department of Defense, and its mission encompasses electronic conversion, retrieval, output, and distribution of digital and hard copy information.

SULLIVAN and its subcontractor Jardon-Howard Technologies (JHT) of Orlando, Florida, will provide approximately 55 full-time staff members to DAPS under this contract issued from Naval Station Norfolk, Virginia. SULLIVAN will supply 28 of these employees and hold full contractual responsibility at all locations served under the contract. Partner JHT will supply 25 to 28 employees. The contract will include staffing DAPS facilities at Naval Station Norfolk Virginia, Naval Base Norfolk Virginia, Defense Distribution Depot Richmond Virginia, Langley AFB Virginia, Fort Campbell Kentucky, Fort Knox Kentucky, Arnold AFB Tennessee, Seymour-Johnson AFB North Carolina, Camp LeJeune North Carolina, and Cherry Point North Carolina. Additionally, SULLIVAN is expecting a follow-on contract award for the Jacksonville DAPS later this month, which will be much larger than the Norfolk award and will place 22 full-time SULLIVAN employees at Warner-Robins AFB in Macon, GA. Twelve additional staff will be placed at NAS Jacksonville, FL and three at MacDill AFB, FL.

Providing excellent logistical services to government and commercial clients since SULLIVAN was founded in 1998 is nothing new. What is new is the DAPS contracts are expanding the breadth and scope of SULLIVAN's professional service offerings to the Midwest and several states beyond on the eastern seaboard. Steven Sullivan, CEO of SULLIVAN, stated, "The partnership with DLA has elevated SULLIVAN from local/regional logistics support to servicing a vastly expanded logistics and technical service footprint. Our company will now support installations with missions based nationwide, and that opens up a range of new strategic opportunities for SULLIVAN--at a key time of growth."

The DLA supplies the nation's military services and several civilian agencies with the critical resources they need to accomplish their missions. SULLIVAN is pleased to partner with an agency with a rich history providing wide-ranging logistical support for peacetime and wartime operations, as well as emergency preparedness and humanitarian missions.

SULLIVAN ranked 7th on the 2004 Inc 500 list of the fastest-growing privately held companies, with a five-year average annual sales growth rate of 1977%. Founded in 1998, SULLIVAN is a professional services company providing science, engineering, and advanced technology services to commercial and government clients throughout the United States.
