Systek assists its Government customers with the acquisition of equipment and services, including some programs valued at hundreds of millions of dollars. Our staff—with an extensive legacy of government, military, and industrial experience—adheres to these basic principles to help the customer realize the best possible return on each purchase:

• Provide sound technical advice and assistance over the entire range of engineering disciplines
• Strive for an optimum balance of cost and performance to yield best value
• Verify that products meet all specified performance and quality requirements
• Ensure that products and services will be delivered when the customer needs them
• Comply strictly with all established acquisition policies, protocols, and regulations
• Honor, with ethics and integrity, the trust the customer has extended to us

Addressing Challenges

Systek helps customers execute successful acquisition programs in the face of unprecedented challenges, including:

• Severe budgetary limitations and uncertainties (facing all government agencies)
• Extensive displacements of organizations and facilities (including BRAC relocations)
• Staffing shortages and loss of experienced acquisition professionals
• Profusion of new rules, regulations, and policies that must be accommodated
• Rapidly evolving technologies that outpace the processes needed to acquire them
