AdaRose Wins Role in $495 Million Contract

Teamed with L-3 Communications, one of three contractors awarded the Force Protection Security System (FPS2) contract, AdaRose will work with L-3’s Global Security & Engineering Solutions Division. FPS2 will provide integrated base defense physical security systems at U.S. Air Force and other U.S. Defense Department sites worldwide.

AdaRose receives Contract Award from the U.S. Army Joint Munitions & Lethality Life Cycle Management Command.

AdaRose will provide software engineering support for Artillery & Tank Weapon Systems and Virtual Trainers. This is a $75 Million Task Order Contract, shared with 6 other contractors, supporting the Armament Software Engineering Center at Picatinny Arsenal, NJ.

AdaRose was selected as a key subcontractor to Compumatics, Penobscot Bay Media, and Professional Solutions. These three winning prime contractors leveraged AdaRose's excellence in System and Software Design, Development, Engineering, and Integration as well as Emerging Technologies, Trainers/Simulators, and IV&V support, to help them garner their awards. This is a 10-year, $5 Billion, Task Order Contract designed to provide business opportunities for service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses.

With three published articles on Software Risk Management, the President of AdaRose and his engineers mitigate risk through a defined yet flexible process using rapid prototyping, and "feature set" deliveries, to keep clients in the loop from the get-go through final testing and delivery.
