(NYSE:BWXT) is pleased to announce the Syncom Space Services LLC (S3) team, comprised of PAE Applied Technologies LLC and BWXT Nuclear Operations Group, Inc., was selected by NASA for the Synergy Achieving Consolidated Operations & Maintenance (SACOM) contract. If all options are exercised, the maximum potential value for S3 is $1.2 billion.
