âItâs an honor to be able to support the cutting-edge research and development at GRC (Glenn Research Center),â Gail Hall, managing partner of the BQMI-Peerless Joint Venture, said in a recent announcement. âBoth companies have a long history of supporting NASAâs IT efforts and we look forward to doing our part to support the agencyâs goals.â
The new contract, Professional, Administrative, Computational and Engineering services (PACE V), centers on the support, evolution, and refinement of Glenn Research Centerâs IT infrastructure, the release noted.
While PACE V work is conducted at Glenn Research, near Cleveland, and the Neil A. Armstrong Test Facility in Sandusky, the BQMI-Peerless JV will also collaborate with other NASA centers to help expand and develop agency-wide capabilities and technologies.
Along with IT and cybersecurity support, the Ohio-based BQMI-Peerless JV will help NASA expand its capabilities in artificial intelligence, machine learning, data analytics, cloud services and more.
Founded in 2000, Peerlessâ roster of customers include NASAâs Armstrong Flight Research Center; the F-22 Program Office; the Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center, Air Force Civil Engineer Center, the Air Force Small Business Innovation Research program, the F-35 Joint Program Office, and other federal agencies.
