Dear Colleagues,
As you know, September 30th was the end of the government’s fiscal year and also halfway through Abt’s fiscal year (FY14) which ends in March. You will also be aware that we have just experienced more than 2 weeks of a broad, painful, partial shutdown of the U.S. government. During this shutdown most USG procurement processes were suspended. On October 17 the shutdown ended (for now) and the good news is, we persevered.
I thought it appropriate to pause and update all of you on how we are performing against our company’s strategic plan. In this uncertain and very competitive marketplace, I am pleased to report that the company has reached 43% of our FY14 sales goal. As detailed in the attached FY14 Mid-Year Award Highlights, Abt continues to receive important new work providing us the opportunity to continue to achieve our overall company mission of delivering impactful work that improves the quality of life and economic well-being of people worldwide.
Again thanks to all of you for your continued strong contributions in allowing Abt to perform well against our strategic plan.
Jay
