SAIC Awarded $45 M Contract From NASA

Company to Provide Independent Program/Project Assessment, Analysis and Evaluation Services

(San Diego and McLean, Va., July 17, 2008) -- Science Applications International Corporation (NYSE: SAI) today announced it has been awarded a contract in support of the NASA Office of Program Analysis and Evaluation (PA&E) to provide independent program/project assessment, analysis and evaluation services. This contract has a five year period of performance and a maximum value of $45 million. Work will be performed primarily at NASA's Langley Research Center in Hampton, Va.

The PA&E supports NASA leadership in independently assessing and evaluating advanced concepts and ongoing programs and projects, adding confidence in their objectives, agreed costs and schedules. The highly technical nature of the assessments presents the need for access to a variety of engineering, analytical, scientific, administrative and project management skills. SAIC will provide these services as required in areas including independent assessment, cost estimation and schedule/risk analysis support. The SAIC team will also conduct independent technical, schedule, and cost assessments of NASA projects and programs, and participate in multi-disciplinary teams to provide independent analysis and evaluations.

"We look forward to providing quality services that align with the PA&E mission, goals, and objectives, and offer highly critical assessments and evaluations of NASA's most important programs," said Charles Zang, SAIC senior vice president and business unit general manager. "We will assess and analyze existing and future programs and projects, including space transportation systems, spacecraft and instruments, and aerospace research."
