Metters
Industries, Inc. to be subcontractor
to EDS on HUD HITS contract
McLean,
VA - August 14, 2003 - the Department of
Housing and Urban Development awarded the HUD Information Technology
Service (HITS) contract C-OPC-22521, to Electronic Data Systems
Information Service L.L.C. Metters is one of the subcontractors
on the EDS team.
Under
this contract, the EDS team will furnish the necessary personnel,
materials, equipment, infrastructure software, telecommunications,
facilities, and related services required to deliver core IT infrastructure
functions. Since the pace of change in the information technology
and telecommunications marketplace makes it impossible to fully
anticipate how individual HUD requirements will evolve over the
life of the contract, the EDS team will incorporate innovative and
emerging technologies that improve HUD’s infrastructure and
improve mission performance within the fixed prices proposed for
the core functions.

and services company that provides innovative support services to
many government agencies and commercial customers. With annual sales
of $19 million, Metters serves customers across the United States
