General Dynamics Information Technology is one of four business units within General Dynamics’ Information Systems & Technology group.
In 1999, General Dynamics acquired and integrated three businesses from GTE's Government Systems group: Communication Systems, Electronic Systems and Worldwide Telecommunication Systems. These new businesses gave General Dynamics superb capabilities in information assurance, land communication and networking, as well as broadened its capabilities in signal processing, applications and decision support.
In 2001, General Dynamics Worldwide Telecommunication Systems was renamed General Dynamics Network Systems to better reflect the total suite of IT services.
In 2003, General Dynamics Network Systems acquired the Information Technology Services division of Veridian as well as Creative Technology Incorporated allowing the company to increase its capabilities in network engineering, integration, software development, operations and technical consulting.
In 2006, FC Business Systems, Inc. (FCBS) became part of our company. FCBS added extensive credentials in enterprise network services, including information assurance and information security, network engineering, and software application development and integration. The company has achieved Software Engineering Institute Capability Maturity Model® Integration (SEI CMMI) Maturity Level 3.
Also in 2006, General Dynamics Network Systems acquired Anteon, a leading IT services company that provided government customers with the systems integration, strategy and program management, systems engineering, operations services, and simulation and training solutions necessary to manage the development and operations of mission-critical systems.
