COMPANY BACKGROUND
Northrop Grumman Corporation is a global defense company headquartered
in Los Angeles, Calif. Northrop Grumman provides technologically advanced,
innovative products, services and solutions in systems integration,
defense electronics, information technology, advanced aircraft, shipbuilding
and space technology. With more than 125,000 employees, and operations
in all 50 states and 25 countries, Northrop Grumman serves U.S. and
international military, government and commercial customers.

airborne radar, navigation systems, electronic countermeasures, precision

The sector also provides services for a wide array of naval and commercial
vessels.

service systems companies for the design, engineering, construction,
and life cycle support of major surface ships for the U.S. Navy, U.S.
Coast Guard and international navies, and for commercial vessels of

Northrop Grumman has a well-earned, worldwide reputation for outstanding
performance on defense programs. In January 2003, Forbes ranked us as
the “Company of the Year.” In Business Week’s spring 2003 ranking of
Fifty Best Performers, Northrop Grumman was one of only two defense
firms listed. As a principal services contractor to NAVSEA and its field
activities, we are recognized for cost efficiency in delivering quality
products; effective management of large diverse subcontracting teams;
and outstanding expertise in systems engineering, test and evaluation
(T&E), installation and/or technical support, and system and/or
equipment configuration management (CM) support.
Northrop Grumman’s technical approach includes the following key components:
We offer a technically diverse and experienced team with proven success
on NAVSEA warfare center contracts.
Our team has national reach and perspective yet maintains a true local
focus. We currently hold prime contracts and maintain offices in all
seven zones.
Our proposal cites the qualifications and experience of 142 named employees.
These individuals represent less than 1.5 percent of the total number
of professionals our team currently has under contract supporting numerous
technical efforts for NAVSEA warfare centers. These 9,800 individuals
represent a small percentage of the total employees on the larger Northrop
Grumman team. Such impressive numbers afford our team exceptional reach-back
capability across the country.
Northrop Grumman has a quality-focused management culture based on employee
commitment to quality and adherence to certified and proven processes.
We will apply this philosophy to the Seaport Enhanced contract, including
the use of methodologies such as Capability Maturity Model Integration
(CMMI) Level 5, International Standards Organization (ISO) 9001:2000,
and Six Sigma.
The professionalism of our people, the rigor of our management approach,
and the relevant experience of our technical and management leadership
will ensure the Northrop Grumman team is consistently able to deliver
the highest quality technical solutions and innovations across NAVSEA
warfare centers.
