 ‭(Hidden)‬ AFEI Awards Program

 

FBI and Raytheon Award for N-DEx

  

 

Lockheed Award for F-15 Sniper

The Association for Enterprise Information, AFEI, in September announced the winners of its annual Excellence in Enterprise Integration Awards.

The top government submission selected was the FBI’s criminal justice information services division’s Law Enforcement National Data Exchange (N-DEx). The N-DEx is a powerful investigative system that ties the existing disparate databases on a national scale. It is first-of-its-kind secure platform for national criminal justice information sharing.

Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control’s Sniper Team in Orlando, Fla., took the top industry award. The Sniper Team supported the Air National Guard in meeting critical requirements for homeland defense missions and the integration of a full passive-attack system on the F-15C Eagle.  Read the full article in National Defense.
The Association for Enterprise Information (AFEI) facilitates collaboration between government and industry.  We are a non-profit, member-driven organization serving the needs of our industry and government partners.

AFEI is an affiliate of the National Defense Industrial Association, the premier association for the defense industrial base.
