Company competes, wins competitive contract awards
In December 2009, CIRI purchased North Wind, a company based in Idaho Falls, Idaho. Since then, North Wind has grown to a group of companies employing more than 300 scientific, engineering, management and professional personnel in office locations throughout the country.
“CIRI has helped plan and oversee the development of the new subsidiaries which comprise the North Wind Group of companies,” said Greg Razo, CIRI vice president of government contracting. “Each new subsidiary focuses on a particular sector in the government contracting market and is staffed with top-quality professionals to meet our customer’s needs. CIRI is excited about being able to meet the diverse needs of our customers.”
The North Wind Group now offers a full range of services to meet client needs. The group includes:
