March 2, 2026 | SAICEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Science Applications International Corp. has officially been awarded a new $95 million contract by the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) to provide comprehensive, full-scale IT services and solutions for the Technical Information Services (TIS) program. Under this contract, the company will deliver end-to-end IT solutions designed to support the GAO mission of a revamped and more efficient IT environment that best suits the evolving needs of GAO users.
Under this effort, SAIC will help GAO evolve beyond traditional infrastructure operations into a technology enabled, data driven organization that delivers faster insights, stronger security, and a modern digital experience for its workforce and stakeholders.
SAIC will focus on reengineering how technology is delivered, consumed, and continuously improved across GAO to help modernize applications, platforms, and operating models to increase speed, resilience, and adaptability while embedding security, automation, and compliance by design. The result is a scalable, future ready IT ecosystem that supports GAO’s mission today and positions the agency as a leader in federal technology adoption.
“Our partnership with GAO is about moving from legacy operations to a modern digital enterprise,” said Srini Attili, Executive Vice President of SAIC’s Civilian Business Group. “We are bringing a transformation mindset, not just tools, to help GAO become a technology leading agency. By modernizing applications, enabling a secure multi cloud environment, and leveraging low code, no code, and artificial intelligence, we will help GAO operate faster, smarter, and with greater confidence in its technology foundation.”
SAIC’s approach integrates agile delivery at scale through Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe), modern digital engineering practices, and a disciplined transition strategy that prioritizes continuity, transparency, and measurable outcomes. This model enables continuous modernization, improved system reliability, and rapid adoption of emerging technologies while reducing operational risk and long-term cost.
Through this contract, SAIC will help GAO modernize not just its infrastructure, but the way technology supports mission execution, workforce productivity, and innovation across the enterprise.

SMTA Provides Financial and Mentorship Support for Students of Manufacturing
02/17/2025 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007The shortage of skilled workers in the electronics manufacturing is one of today’s most pressing issues. (Check out the January 2025 issue of PCB007 Magazine for more on this topic.) So, it was not surprising that the topic of workforce was present at DesignCon this year as well. During the show, I spoke with Saniya Pilgaonkar, manager of SMTA membership services, who provided information on not one, but two SMTA scholarships/grants.

Solid-State Physics - Metal Bucks the Trend
07/12/2017 | A*STARAn A*STAR researcher has, together with an international team, uncovered an exception to the longstanding rule that effective heat-conducting metals are also good conduits for electricity. This anomaly could eventually be harnessed in thermoelectric devices that convert waste heat from appliances and engines into useful electric power.
