The company’s IT business unit will head a team of seven large and small businesses. They include:

* Multimax in Largo, Md.

* Nortel Networks in Toronto.

* Phacil in Camden, N.J.

* Research Analysis and Maintenance in El Paso, Texas.

* Siemens in Munich, Germany.

“Northrop Grumman and our industry teammates have significant experience managing large, enterprise-level performance-based contracts in the commercial and federal markets,” said Tim Rouch, the company’s program manager for ITES, the predecessor to the ITES-2S program, in an Aug. 24 statement.

The Army released the solicitation for the ITES-2S contract yesterday. Contract proposals are due Oct. 7.
