CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#ATCGO–TransLumen Technologies, a leading information technology and software company, and industry leader in serious mobile gamification, human computer interface design and data visualization for commercial and government clients, announced today it has been subcontracted by Science Applications International Corporation (NYSE: SAIC) to support the FAA’s Controller Training Solutions (CTS) Contract to provide tools that help Air Traffic Controller trainees prepare for on-the-job training in the operational environment.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) awarded Science Applications International Corp.

Leveraging mobile-based serious-games and blended learning solutions, TransLumen Technologies brings tailored gamification solutions for augmenting training to the FAA and SAIC. Under the CTS contract, TransLumen Technologies’ mobile gamification applications will be an important training tool for the FAA as they develop the next generation Air Traffic Controller workforce to ensure the Agency’s continued preparedness to meet the challenges of managing millions of flights each year.

Speaking of the contract award, Doug Siefken, TransLumen’s Founder, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Technology Officer said, “We are honored to receive our third subcontract award by SAIC.
