In 2020, CTI faced significant challenges due to the coronavirus pandemic. The partnership with SRNS was a turning point in expanding CTI's capabilities and growing the company from 91 employees to more than 200.
“The confidence that SRNS has given our business has created a thriving and constantly evolving work culture,” Subbarayan added. “We've expanded from simple demolition to large-scale civilian and radiation exposures, attracting the attention of Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Hanford.”
To date, CTI has successfully delivered 20 task orders in the $14.7 million range ahead of schedule. One of his projects earned the Lower Three Runs project team a Secretary of Energy Achievement Award.
“SRNS' utilization of the Mentor-Protégé Program is a shining example at the Savannah River Site and throughout the DOE complex to support and grow small businesses while accomplishing rigorous management and operational missions.” said Robert Meek of DOE-Savannah. River Small Business Program Manager.
The selected disciple companies will perform mission-critical areas for SRS, including deactivation and demolition, construction, infrastructure services, staffing and information technology.
“Our team continues to transform MPP into an acquisition strategy for sector leaders, allowing companies like CTI to provide innovative solutions to DOE,” said Jay Johnson, vice president of contracts and supply chain management at SRNS. I will do so.” “The MPP Center of Excellence is a unique opportunity for our disciples to connect with SRNS leaders and effectively engage with other small businesses outside of our competitive markets.”
SRNS MPP supports disadvantaged small businesses, women-owned small businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned businesses, businesses located in historically underutilized business districts, historically black colleges and universities, and other minority-serving higher education institutions.
