Rome, NY, July 30, 2004 - Representative Sherwood Boehlert (R-New Hartford) is an honored guest as the New York State Technology Enterprise Corporation (NYSTEC) and its affiliate Syracuse Research Corporation (SRC) host a ribbon-cutting ceremony and open house today, July 30, to present their new research facility to the Rome community. The new building is located at 52 Geiger Road in the Griffiss Business and Technology Park.

The facility’s opening supports Congressman Boehlert’s strategy to promote the area’s central role in providing expertise in information technology research. The 10,200 sq. ft. building consists of the old Air Force Base Library and a new addition, and houses over 55 people for the companies. The July 30 ceremony will begin with opening remarks from Congressman Boehlert and NYSTEC/SRC President & CEO, Robert U. Roberts. A reception will follow the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

Rep. Boehlert said, “SRC’s decision to open a new office in Rome is further evidence of the potential that is being realized at the Griffiss Business Technology Park. SRC will be an exciting partner for the exceptional research being done at Griffiss and it's been a pleasure to work with them to continue our vision for a cutting edge technology center. This new office will provide critical support for the Air Force Research Lab (AFRL) and other Griffiss partners, as well as economic opportunities for the community. We welcome SRC to Rome and look forward to a prosperous relationship with them.”

Syracuse Research Corporation Expanding Operations

July 12, 2004 – Syracuse Research Corporation (SRC) is expanding its offices in Syracuse, New York. A 15,850 square foot addition is being constructed at its corporate headquarters located at 6225 Running Ridge Road in North Syracuse. The addition will provide offices for about 60 employees and allow SRC to accommodate its recent and expected future growth. Other scheduled changes include a new entrance road, additional parking spaces, re-landscaping, and improved access throughout the complex.

This growth is the result of several contract awards and supplemental federal government funding that SRC recently received, some of which was acquired through the efforts of U.S. Representative James Walsh. Three of these new contracts collectively total more than $80 million and will support an Environmental Protection Agency health and environmental assessment program; a research and development contract to design, build, integrate and test a unique airborne radar system for the U.S. Army’s Communications-Electronics Command; and a follow-on contract to support an ongoing Intelligence Agency information technologies project. With Congressman Walsh’s support, SRC continues to grow its operations in Central New York through contracts that showcase our experience in numerous business areas that affect projects of national significance. 

U.S. Senator Clinton, who was unable to attend, is another strong supporter of SRC’s growth. She said, "I want to congratulate Syracuse Research on this expansion project. This groundbreaking represents yet more growth and investment in the local economy which I am always pleased to support.

Syracuse Research Corporation Wins Contract Worth up to $35M

July 1, 2004 - Syracuse Research Corporation has been awarded a three-year research and development contract to design, build, integrate and test a unique airborne radar system for the U.S. Army’s Communications-Electronics Research, Development and Engineering Center (CERDEC). The contract has a potential value of $35M. 

This three-year, two-phase contract, funded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), for the FOPEN Reconnaissance, Surveillance, Tracking and Engagement Radar (FORESTER) will leverage many SRC capabilities. FORESTER is a foliage penetration (FOPEN) radar with both real-time Ground Moving Target Indicator (GMTI) and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) capabilities. The objective of SRC's work on the FORESTER Program is to design, build, integrate, and test a system that can detect and track moving targets under dense foliage. 

Each of the two phases of this program will span 18 months. The first phase is an effort to produce the radar and tower test it.  The potential second phase then commences with a 10-month effort to integrate and test the radar on a Black Hawk helicopter. This phase concludes with the integration and test of the radar on the A160 Hummingbird helicopter unmanned aerial vehicle.
