Alyeska CIO Erv Barnes said, ‘At the end of the original contract, SAIC was challenged to provide even better service and support along with cost efficiencies. This competitive process resulted in Alyeska and SAIC entering into a new five year contract.’

1,800 desktops

IT services include local and wide area network support, security, application maintenance and enhancement, and cross functional services. SAIC also will support approximately 1,800 desktops and approximately 100 servers and multiple storage area networks.

Trans-Alaska

The contract will be performed in Anchorage, Fairbanks, Valdez, and along the 800 miles of the Trans-Alaskan Pipeline.
