  A Legacy of Technical Achievement  
 


EG&G, a division of URS Corporation, is a major federal government contractor, providing program management and acquisition support, systems engineering and technical assistance, and operations and maintenance services.

We are committed to providing our clients with outstanding support and delivering quality services at the best prices. EG&G's success is based on proven management processes, technical expertise and dedicated employees. We are committed to utilizing technology and innovation to deliver superior performance and cost effective support services.

EG&G was founded by Harold E. Edgerton, Kenneth J. Germeshausen and Herbert E. Grier in 1947 as Edgerton, Germeshausen and Grier, Inc. and today bears their initials. In 1931, Edgerton and Germeshausen had formed a partnership to study high-speed photographic and stroboscopic techniques and their applications. Mr. Grier joined them in 1934, and in 1947, EG&G was incorporated.

During World War II, the government's Manhattan Project made use of Edgerton's discoveries to photograph atomic explosions; it was a natural evolution that the company would support the Atomic Energy Commission in its weapons research and development after the war. This work for the Commission provided the historic foundation to the Company's present-day technology base.

Since then, we have broadened our expertise, offering a wide array of technology goods and services that complement our expertise in weapons system design and analysis. In March 2002, EG&G consolidated with Lear Siegler Services, a leader in installations management, logistics support, military equipment maintenance and flight training for military pilots. In August 2002, EG&G was acquired, and became a division of URS Corporation, one of the largest engineering design services firms in the U.S.

The EG&G Division serves a multitude of clients, including the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the Departments of Energy, Defense, Treasury, and Transportation, Defense Logistics Agency, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

We do things that make a measurable difference in the world from our asset management capabilities to supporting the design and development of new weapons systems. EG&G's history of innovation and excellence is the keystone of our past accomplishments and the key to the success of our future.

Today, EG&G supports the U.S. Army, U.S. Navy, U.S. Air Force, U.S. Marine Corps, The Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Coast Guard, National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the Department of Energy, and other federal agencies.
