US Navy Hires ESN to Conduct Combat Systems Engineering

Engineering Services Network, Inc. (ESN), an engineering and technology solutions company that provides services to the Department of Defense and other federal agencies, has won $3.5 million in new task orders from the U.S. Navy to conduct combat systems engineering and systems integration.

The awards to ESN include a follow-on task order by the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme Division of $956,500 for casualty report (CASREP) and Combat System Maintenance Coordinator East Coast (CSMC East) services; and $2.6 million delivery order for Combat System In-Service Engineering Agent (CSISEA) support.

The services ESN provides are critical for aircraft carriers, amphibious units and their strike groups, so they can maintain a high level of mission readiness with full operational combat system capabilities.

“ESN’s combat system engineers who work on the contract have decades of active-duty Navy experience and expertise on all facets of their respective combat systems,” said ESN President and CEO Raymond F. Lopez, Jr. “They support the Navy’s government combat system engineering experts at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme Division.”

ESN’s mission is to establish an engineering resource for planning and coordinating the installation of Combat System, Command, Control, Communications, Computer and Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) Systems in aircraft carriers and other strike group or strike force units, including LHA, LHD, LPH and other L-Class units. In addition, ESN’s team will evaluate design concepts and develop technical documentation to support these efforts on current and proposed Combat System and C5ISR programs.

To perform the task orders, ESN’s team includes 21 full-time and five part-time employees in Port Hueneme, CA, San Diego, Norfolk, VA, Washington, DC, and Berkeley Springs, WV.
