Ultra Electronics honoured with three Cogswell Awardsfor industrial security excellence

The US Defense Security Service (DSS) honoured Ultra Electronics with three James S. Cogswell Awards for industrial security excellence during a June 8, 2016, ceremony in Nashville, Tennessee.

The rigorous Cogswell Award selection process typically selects less than one percent of defence companies to receive this recognition. A DSS Industrial Security Representative may only nominate facilities that have earned at a minimum two consecutive “superior” industrial security review ratings and which show a sustained degree of excellence and innovation in their overall security program management, implementation and oversight.

The Ultra Electronics facilities honoured were:

  • Ultra Electronics, Advanced Tactical Systems, Inc. in Austin, Texas (five consecutive superior ratings)
  • Ultra Electronics Secure Intelligence Systems, Inc. in Austin, Texas (three consecutive superior ratings)
  • Prologic, Inc. in Manassas, Virginia (three consecutive superior ratings)

The award is based on achieving security excellence. An award winning facility establishes and maintains a security program that far surpasses the requirements of the National Industrial Security Program as well as provides leadership within the security community.
