VARGIS Awarded $5 Million in New Contract Orders

Sterling, VA, July, 2005 – VARGIS LLC announced its exceptional growth with over $5 Million in new contracts for the quarter ended June 30, 2005. VARGIS expects this growth trend to continue into 2005. The company advanced market penetration in all markets, through awards primarily coming from competition on a national basis. VARGIS is experiencing an explosion of growth in all aspects of the industry including photogrammetry / LiDAR, application development, GIS migration, and core services of data maintenance and data conversion services. The company success continues to penetrate the electric & gas utilities as well as state, local, and federal governments.

According to VARGIS President, Mr. Greg Tilley, “VARGIS is beginning the 2nd year of a 5 year growth plan. Our continued success over the past two quarters indicates our strategy for product and service offering is on-target with market demand. The upswing in the economy combined with our reputation for solid project management, QA/QC programs, high quality products & services, and the ability to provide cost-effective solutions gives us the advantage to stay out in front within the GIS industry. We expect the ability to deliver an on-shore, near-shore, or off-shore solution will allow VARGIS to continue exceeding our growth plan goals.”
