NextiraOne Federal, LLC d/b/a Black Box Network Services (''Black Box'') Chosen To Provide Critical 9-1-1 Consolidated Emergency Response System by the United States Marines Corps

Black Box Network Services today announced their selection by the Marine Corps Systems Command (MARCORSYSCOM) out of Quantico, VA as the Prime contractor to modernize the on-base 9-1-1 system at Camp Lejeune, N.C. Black Box was chosen to implement this mission-critical solution over several other bidders from the GSA Connections Contract. The 9-1-1 project, recognized as the Consolidated Emergency Response System (CERS), is designed to replace the existing 9-1-1 system at MCB Camp Lejeune. The new centralized, secure command and control system leverages the existing telecom infrastructure and provides real-time critical information from diverse, incompatible inputs to allow for rapid and accurate communication with first responders. CERS is fully compliant with E911 Phase II wireless technology and incorporates the use of GIS images along with digital mapping in its response capabilities. Along with allowing for enhanced location verification, this system also provides a visual image of the location and surrounding area for first responders. Black Box Network Services will deliver a JITC/IA-certified solution. The enhanced system is being installed at one of the largest Marine Corps Bases on the East Coast. Major subcontractors to Black Box include Intergraph Corporation, PlantCML and Unique Communications. The project is estimated to be completed in the September/October 2007 timeframe. "We are privileged to have been selected by MARCORSYSCOM for this important CERS project at Camp Lejeune,” stated Jeffrey Murray, Vice President of Black Box Network Services Federal Group. "We honor and value the work and dedication of our Service Members, and want to provide them and their families the optimum in security protection while they are on their home soil.” The stated mission of MARCORSYSCOM is "To serve as the Commandant's principal agent for acquisition and sustainment of systems and equipment used by the Operating Forces to accomplish their warfighting mission.” About Black Box Black Box is the world's largest technical services company dedicated to designing, building and maintaining today's complicated data and voice infrastructure systems.
