Government IT and engineering solutions provider AMERICAN SYSTEMS is marking the 45th anniversary of its founding this year.
The company announced plans to celebrate the occasion with a companywide video teleconference celebration March 5 in honor of company founder H. Thomas âTomâ Curranâs birthday.
Curran, who passed away in 2014, founded AMERICAN SYSTEMS (formerly American Communications Corp.) in 1975 with a focus on providing technicians to telecommunications firms. In 1976, Curran teams with Forrest âWoodyâ Ramsey, and the companyâs focus expanded to include systems engineering for U.S. submarines.
AMERICAN SYSTEMS has focused on delivering services and solutions for 4.5 decades, exceeding customersâ expectations, said President and CEO Peter Smith.
âAs we move forward, we expect to build on that legacy with our customers and employees,â he added. âWe adopted the tagline âForty-five and thrivingâ in connection with our anniversary, as we are enjoying our strongest years of growth and, consequently, our highest shareholder value.â
