Growth of the Company: FY 1992

The company established a new organization to focus its business development efforts in the international and commercial arena.


Fiscal Year 1992

SAIC developed a Five-Year Plan that projected major growth in these areas, and the new organization would foster and direct that growth. Commercial business and international business differ significantly from traditional government contracting businesses, and SAIC planned to meet this challenge.

SAIC remained a people-intensive company. In Fiscal Year 1992, the company began a major internal review of policies and procedures affecting the development and use of human resources. The company established a task force with broad company representation to review such topics as recruiting internal transfers, career development, training, and employee communication, as well as compensation and benefits.

  • SAIC acquired Logistic System Architects, which greatly expanded SAIC’s ability to provide defense logistics support, including automation, information systems, training, test and evaluation, and simulation

  • SAIC reached record contract awards of $2.76 billion, almost a 50% increase over Fiscal Year 1991
