INTERNATIONAL PROGRAMS SUPPORT

  Since our founding, SASI has worked in the New Independent States (NIS) to promote U.S. Government goals
  and has developed a reputation for innovative solutions delivered on-time and within budget. SASI has world-class   expertise in defense conversion and demilitarization, acquisition and logistics, program management support,   research and analysis, and economic promotion and development. We have a broad understanding of how to
  conduct business in the military and commercial sectors of the NIS economy. We have supported programs with   the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD), Department of State (DOS), Department of Energy (DOE), and the   Department of Commerce (DOC). SASI has extensive experience working with NIS military, laboratory, and   commercial enterprises. We know how to establish the necessary business relationships to be successful in NIS   countries, including how to bring together former and current NIS industrial and military personnel to accomplish   defense conversion and other economic goals. Because we have personnel located in country that are U.S.,   Ukrainian, and Russian citizens, we are able to facilitate communication and relationships through cultural   differences. Under contract with the Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) Program (or "Nunn Lugar"), SASI works   to promote threat reduction and defense conversion. For example, SASI developed a business plan for converting   Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) materials and facilities to commercial uses in Ukrainian factories in   Pavlovgrad and Dnipropetrovsk. Under the DoE Initiative for Proliferation Prevention, SASI validated techniques for   neutron irradiation of GaAs semi-conductors at a former Russian nuclear research institute. SASI developed and   executed a model for conducting market analysis for U.S. companies for the U.S. Embassy in Moscow. For the   U.S. Department of Commerce, SASI conducted a program review to assess the effectiveness of the Special   American Business Internship Training Program (SABIT), a local education program that promotes commercial   development. SABIT trains managers and scientists from NIS in American methods of innovation and management
  in such areas as strategic planning, financing, production, distribution, marketing, accounting, wholesaling, and   labor relations. As a charter member of the U.S. Industry Coalition (USIC), SASI worked with the DOE and various
  National Laboratories under the Initiative for Proliferation Prevention (IPP), which employs former NIS scientists in   non-weapons related work. We are an Industry Collaborator with the International Science and Technology Center   (ISTC) and the Science and Technology Center Ukraine (STCU), which promote a broad range of technology   research in such areas as biotechnology, chemistry, manufacturing, instrumentation and environment. SASI also is
  well versed in U.S., Ukrainian and Russian local requirements for import and export control, and have extensive   experience in obtaining permits and licenses to comply with these requirements in support of U.S. Government   programs. Examples of SASI services:
