“This contract expands on our core capability of supporting infrastructure protection,” said Zekiah CEO Brianna Bowling. “Zekiah has been providing geospatial solutions in the infrastructure protection arena since the late 1990s and this contract is an important part of our continued growth in this area. DHS IP performs important work daily and we are honored to be able to support their mission.”
Under this contract, Zekiah will provide several analysts to perform all-hazards geospatial analysis, producing static and interactive cartographic and data products such as map books, presentations and/or web maps for long-term, deliberate planning, and time-sensitive tasks. As the prime contractor, Zekiah teamed with Booz Allen Hamilton to bring a proven relationship to DHS.

We are excited to be able to bring our capabilities to bear in support of DHS IP."
