SBAR now has offices across the US, with major division offices in Arlington, Pasadena, San Diego, and Colorado Springs.
SBAR has GSA Multiple Award Schedules for Corporate Contracts in Engineering and IT, this allows Government agencies to order directly from SBAR by purchase order for a range of technology and support services selected from an approved catalog and price list, such as Marine Engineering & Support Services (design/fab/install/test, vessel chartering, commercial diving, etc). The company’s corporate contracting provides added value by reducing administrative costs, shortening lead times for Government contracting, while ensuring quality services and products.
EISF's latest project, "Jewels of the Pacific: The Channel Islands", has many technical aspects requiring ocean engineering expertise and marine industry contacts for special equipment and services to enable dramatic underwater exploration filming. SBAR currently holds several Navy ocean engineering contracts, with personnel that are knowledgeable and experienced with manned submersibles, remote operated vehicles, local research vessels and associated deck equipment.
EISF and SBAR look forward to this new partnership for utilizing state-of-the-art marine technology to capture compelling underwater HD video images, which will enable the public to experience an exciting virtual journey, never seen before, beneath the ocean surface in our treasured Channel Islands.
