Engineering Services Network (ESN) has been contracted for the continuation of major combat systems work with the US Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC).

The contract is valued at $39.5m and has been awarded by the NSWC Port Hueneme Division (NSWC PHD) field activity of the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA).

ESN is currently serving as the prime contractor for the combat systems operational sequencing system (CSOSS), which is designed to provide ‘technical operations’ procedures for all combat systems equipment.

"We have been a steadfast partner with NSWC PHD Code A34, with a track record of implementing cost-effective efficiencies through innovation and LEAN methodologies."

The company will be responsible for providing support to the NSWC PHD in the Port Hueneme, San Diego and Norfolk areas as part of the arrangement.

The project is set to include the development, upgrade, validation and delivery of CSOSS for all shipboard sensors, as well as command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C4ISR) and weapon systems.

ESN chief executive officer and US Navy military veteran Raymond F. Lopez said: “We have been a steadfast partner with NSWC PHD Code A34, with a track record of implementing cost-effective efficiencies through innovation and LEAN methodologies.”
