New, independent subsidiary of Intergraph Corp. established to continue company's 40 years of supporting U.S. government with geospatially powered software and services
HUNTSVILLE, Ala., Nov. 2, 2010 - Intergraph Government Solutions (IGS), a wholly owned subsidiary of Intergraph®, has been officially established to serve the company's U.S. Federal customer base. This new, independent subsidiary will contain all of Intergraph's federal agency and Intelligence community classified businesses: Defense & Intelligence; Federal Solutions and Intergraph Services Corp.
As a result of the Oct. 28, 2010 acquisition of Intergraph by Hexagon AB, a leading global measurement technology company headquartered in Sweden, IGS was created to ensure compliance with U.S. laws, to protect U.S. government information and to support the current and future requirements of its U.S. federal and classified customers. Intergraph Security, Government & Infrastructure (SG&I) will continue to provide Intergraph defense and intelligence solutions internationally.
"Intergraph has been a trusted partner of the U.S. Department of Defense, intelligence and federal civil agencies for 40 years," said Brig. Gen. Jack Pellicci, U.S. Army (Ret.), president and CEO, IGS. "The creation of IGS allows Intergraph to continue serving these agencies with solutions and a range of on-site services to meet their unique organizational and performance objectives."
As required by law, all operations of IGS will be controlled and overseen by a special proxy board consisting of three or more outside and fully independent directors who hold security clearances with the U.S. government. The proxy board is under review by the Defense Security Service (DSS). The new directors will be U.S. citizens with strong experience in U.S. government or with the Department of Defense.
Intergraph's geospatially powered solutions transform vast amounts of complex data into actionable intelligence. The company's solutions and IT services help defense and intelligence agencies build and manage geospatial databases, produce operational maps, manage critical enterprise content, analyze and fuse geospatial intelligence, manage weapon support systems and ensure the security of military bases and installations.
