Proven Experience
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL)
AIS provides Supplemental Labor Personnel services to Lawrence Livermore National Security (LLNS) in Livermore, CA., staffing physicists, scientists, chemists, engineers, technicians, facility operations personnel, administrative, and business professionals with 145 different job titles and roughly half of those personnel holding active L or Q clearances. Employees work in a fast paced and exciting community side by side with LLNL employees as well as other contract personnel. The average time to fill a position from receipt of requisition until the employee starts work is 20 days. At one point the AIS PMO transitioned approximately 200 people over a 6-month period as LLNL insourced employees then outsourced almost the same number of their part-time employees. These outsourced parttime employees included a number of world-class scientists, including numerous former Lab senior management personnel, all of whom required extra care and attention to retain.
Sandia National Laboratory
AIS provides staff augmentation services to National Technology & Engineering Solutions of Sandia (NTESS) at the Sandia National Laboratory (SNL) in Albuquerque, NM, supporting seven sites on this contract. The primary SNL locations include Albuquerque, NM; Livermore, CA; and Carlsbad, NM. SNL leased or DOE/NNSA facilities space includes the Yucca Mountain Project, Las Vegas, NV; Kansas City Plant, Kansas City, MO; Pantex Plant, Amarillo, TX; and Sandia Program Office in Washington, DC. We currently have > 160 scientists, chemists, engineers, technicians, administrative, and business professionals with over 70 different labor titles and appropriate clearance levels. AIS recruits both nationwide and globally. Our response rates are a five-day turnaround on Pre-Select Requisitions and a 10-day turnaround on Non-Pre-Select Requisitions and we are meeting our requisition response target rate 99% of the time. During an expedited 25-day transition period, all 175 incumbent personnel were transferred from three incumbent companies resulting in 100% of workforce available for duty on Day 1.
