QinetiQ North America to Support Management of Federal Real Estate

Contract awarded to deliver GSA Public Buildings Service New Inventory System

FAIRFAX, Va., June 29 /PRNewswire/ -- The U.S. General Services Administration
(GSA) has awarded QinetiQ North America's ITS Corporation subsidiary a
contract worth up to $39M over five years to deliver a new, custom-developed
enterprise application to replace the GSA's Public Buildings Service's (PBS)

management of its 354 million square foot inventory of office buildings and
other real property.

QinetiQ North America's Mission Solutions Group will develop the new
application at its Reston, Virginia, facility. The new inventory system will
be the Public Buildings Service's (PBS) core system, and the first built
specifically to take advantage of the PBS eCommon Service Oriented
Architecture (SOA) platform, also developed by QinetiQ North America.

estate management will help us deliver an outstanding solution to the GSA,"
says David Riggs, Senior Vice President (Federal Solutions) at QinetiQ North
America. "We enjoy a long relationship with GSA and with the Public Buildings
Service in particular, and we look forward to extending that relationship."

leading-edge capabilities in service oriented software development," says
Steve Cambone, President of QinetiQ North America's Mission Solutions Group.

QinetiQ North America will be performing this work under GSA's Federal Supply
Schedule 70--Information Technology Services. The company's ITS Corporation
subsidiary is a Schedule 70 prime contractor and a prime contract holder of
GSA's Alliant Government-Wide Acquisition Contract.
