The invention generally relates to coatings for integrated circuits or other electronics packages. The invention also relates generally to methods of providing such coatings.
Conventionally integrated circuits are designed for use in relatively benign environments such as desktop PC's, cell phones, and the like. When these integrated circuit technologies are used in more demanding environments such as avionics they may experience excessively high failure rates due to the higher operating temperature, corrosion, etc. In addition, due to the sensitive nature of the information that may be stored on these components, it may be necessary to protect these devices from reverse engineering in the event that a system containing them were to fall into unfriendly hands. Modifying integrated circuits to improve their thermal performance, corrosion resistance, and tamper resistance is typically very expensive and can be detrimental to reliability.
Therefore, what is needed is a low-cost, simple method for making commercial integrated circuits more suitable for use in harsh environments. Further, what is needed is a low-cost coating for an integrated circuit which provides resistance to damage in harsh environments.
The techniques herein below extend to those embodiments which fall within the scope of the appended claims, regardless of whether they accomplish one or more of the above-mentioned needs.
What is provided is an electronics package. The electronics package comprises a substrate and at least one electronic component coupled to the substrate. The electronics package also comprises an alkali silicate coating forming a hermetic seal around at least a portion of the at least one electronic component.
What is also provided is a method of forming an electronics package. The method comprises providing at least one electronic component. The method further comprises mixing an alkali silicate material with water, micro, and or nano particles and depositing the coating onto the electronic component. Further still, the method comprises curing the alkali silicate material.
What is also provided is an electronics package. The electronics package comprises a substrate and at least one electronic component coupled to the substrate. The electronics package also comprises a low curing temperature glass coating forming a hermetic seal around at least a portion of the at least one electronic component.
Further, what is provided is a method of forming an electronics package. The method comprises providing at least one electronic component and mixing a low curing temperature glass solution with water, micro and or nano particles. The method further comprises depositing the coating onto the electronic component and curing the glass material.
Alternative exemplary embodiments relate to other features and combination of features as may be generally recited in the claims.
A better understanding of the features and advantages of the present invention will be obtained by reference to the following detailed description that sets forth illustrative embodiments by way of example only, in which the principles of the invention are utilized, and the accompanying drawings, of which:
Before describing in detail the particular improved system and method, it should be observed that the invention includes, but is not limited to a novel structural combination of conventional data/signal processing components and communications circuits, and not in the particular detailed configurations thereof. Accordingly, the structure, methods, functions, control and arrangement of conventional components and circuits have, for the most part, been illustrated in the drawings by readily understandable block representations and schematic diagrams, in order not to obscure the disclosure with structural details which will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, having the benefit of the description herein. Further, the invention is not limited to the particular embodiments depicted in the exemplary diagrams, but should be construed in accordance with the language in the claims.
In accordance with an exemplary embodiment, low processing temperature hermetic glass coatings for microelectronics packaging are desirable for hermetically sealing the packaging as well as providing resistance to corrosion and high temperature. These glass coatings are applied and cured at low temperatures, typically ≦100° C. and produce tightly adhering hermetic (water impermeable) coatings capable of withstanding very high temperatures, theoretically up to ˜700° C. These glass coatings may be composed of alkali silicate glass with nanoparticle modifiers, including, but not limited to, nano calcium carbonate, nano zinc oxide and nano silicon dioxide. Aqueous alkali silicate composite solutions applied on or between surfaces of materials, dry to form a tough, tightly adhering inorganic bond that exhibits many desirable characteristics. Additionally, these solutions can be mixed with high thermal conductivity particles, such as, but not limited to, diamond, aluminum nitride, beryllium oxide, or metals to produce high thermal conductivity coatings for heat spreading.
Alkali silicate glasses are produced by fusing varying portions of sand (SiO2) and alkali carbonate, (M2CO3) at high temperatures, between 1000-1500° C. The resulting product, upon cooling from its molten state, is an amorphous glass that can, under the appropriate processing conditions (temperature and pressure), be dissolved into water to produce liquid alkali silicate solutions. In accordance with an exemplary embodiment the glass is mixed with deionized water. The proportion of SiO2 to M2O is typically defined as the weight ratio. The solution viscosity can be controlled by the concentration of water.
Alkali silicates, in general, are economical, environmentally friendly chemicals which have been used to protect a variety of materials from the corrosive effects of water. These chemicals are classified as corrosion inhibitors because they can deposit protective silicate rich films, isolating materials from corrosive attack. Additionally, they raise the pH of water which can make it less corrosive to metals. Studies have shown that alkali silicates are reactive with cationic metals and metal surfaces. This is the basis by which silicates inhibit corrosion, as illustrated in
Liquid alkali silicate solutions are commercially available in a variety of SiO2/M2O ratios. Typically, ratios of 3.25 down to 1 can be obtained in aqueous or powder form. Highly siliceous liquid alkali silicate solutions tend to air dry rapidly, are the most refractory (high melting temperature), and are the most resistant to acids and corrosion. These silica rich liquid solutions tend to contain more water than the alkaline rich solutions (per similar viscosity), and thus undergo greater shrinkage while curing. Low ratio, alkaline rich, solutions tend to have greater elasticity, lower brittleness, and less shrinkage but may exhibit poor corrosion resistance. These low ratio coatings also dry more slowly because their alkali content creates a greater affinity for water. Many chemically resistant cements and mortars are produced using high ratio (N˜3.25) alkali silicate solutions. In order for the silicate coatings to become impermeable and relatively insoluble, water must be completely removed. Air drying alone is usually not adequate for coatings which will be exposed to weather or high moisture environments. For these applications heat curing is often needed. Curing temperatures between 95 and 100° C. are often sufficient for adequate dehydration.
It is desirable to use highly corrosion resistant coatings in microelectronics packaging. While off-the-shelf alkali silicate solutions applied and processed in an appropriate manner could potentially provide a temporary hermetic barrier for microelectronic devices, they may not hold up in harsh testing environments, such as those produced during Highly Accelerated Stress Testing (HAST). In order to produce highly corrosion resistant coatings, modifiers must be added to the base alkali silicate solutions. Studies have shown that adding colloidal silicon dioxide to liquid alkali silicates can produce coatings that are comparable to that of current chromium based passivation, as characterized by salt spray testing. The purpose of these coatings is to protect steel and other metals from environmental corrosion. While a broad range of alkali silicate compositions may be used, highly silica rich coatings (R≧3.25) are the most corrosion resistant. These high ratio solutions can be made by adding additional SiO2 to the base alkali silicate. However, these silica rich coatings often crack during the curing process. This cracking may be avoided by applying the appropriate solution mixture, thickness, and using an appropriate curing process, all of which may be application specific. Successful silicate rich coatings (R≧4) have been applied to the surfaces of silicon die and other inorganic substrates, which can be cured quickly, are crack free, and possess excellent adhesion strength and durability. These silica enhanced alkali silicate solutions provide improved corrosion resistance, but they can be made more corrosion resistant with the addition of calcium carbonate and or zinc oxide. Silicate solutions can react with calcium to form insoluble calcium-silicate compounds. Similarly, zinc oxide has been used to produce silicate coatings that are actually capable of shedding water. In order to achieve good mixing and dispersion, nano-sized particles of these constituents may be used in the coatings described herein. The large surface area per weight of the nanoparticles helps to maximize silicate glass modification for improved corrosion resistance of the composite.
It has been shown that increasing the silicate ratio, for alkali silicate glass coatings, may lead to cracking in thick coatings.
In an exemplary lab test, a particular amount of cracking was observed in thick silica rich (R=3.22) coatings, whereas no or little cracking was seen in the alkali rich coatings. In the silica rich coating, delamination was observed around the periphery and significant cracking throughout. When this same solution is applied in the appropriate thickness, a much stronger, crack free, fast curable coating can be formed. Such coatings have been applied to copper clad PCB substrates, aluminum and copper metals, and silicon die. These coatings are thin (<2 microns), but can be applied in multiple layers to build up the thickness. It has been observed that even these very thin coatings can provide a rugged moisture barrier at high temperatures (≧450° C.). The corrosion protection of silicate coating applied to a copper clad PCB board has been demonstrated.
When compared with conventional silicon Room Temperature Vulcanizing (RTV) (polymer) coatings, very little oxidation protection is seen while the alkali silicate glass coating provided a hermetic seal.
In another exemplary embodiment, silica rich coatings may be applied to wire bonded dies. The purpose of the coatings is to prevent galvanic corrosion at the wire bond/pad interface, a primary failure mechanism in these devices. Preventing this galvanic corrosion leads to significantly greater reliability and can potentially eliminate the need for hermetic packaging.
In an exemplary and non-limiting embodiment, the alkali silicate glass coated wire bond pads may be formed by applying alkali silicate solutions onto chip surfaces then quickly curing at 150° C. for 5 minutes. Multiple layers may be applied to each of the coated wire bonds. The result of the coating process has been exemplary shown that the shear strength of coated joints were up to a 25% stronger than uncoated joints. Additionally, pull testing has shown no ball lifts (i.e. there were no separations between ball and pad) in the testing environment.
In addition to thin coatings, composites may be made by mixing the silicate solutions with high thermal conductivity particles such as aluminum nitride, beryllium oxide, diamond, and or metals. These coatings have been found to significantly improve heat transfer when coated over power dissipating devices. For example, thermal improvements in these coated devices are shown in
Referring to
In a further exemplary embodiment, the addition of nanoparticles to the alkali silicate glass thermal composites provides additional corrosion resistance.
In an alternative exemplary embodiment, a low temperature bonding (LTB) solution, a proprietary composition, available from SCHOTT North America, Inc. may also be used.
In accordance with exemplary embodiments, numerous ways may be applied in which to provide heat and corrosion resistance to microelectronics packages. These are detailed below and include but are not limited to the following:
Coating bare dies that have been wire bonded or flip chip attached with a coating to form a hermetic glass barrier over the electronics. The coated device could then presumably be encapsulated using standard processing methods. The coating would be a thin layer of glass (≧100 nm) that will provide a hermetic seal to the die and therefore protect it from corrosive elements. For example,
Adding particles to the coating to make it opaque and then coating the solution onto a wire bonded or flip chip die. Thus, the coating would provide tamper resistance to the device without exposing it to high processing temperatures. An illustration of this is shown in
Adding high thermal conductivity particles, such as diamond, beryllium oxide, and or aluminum nitride to the coating prior to applying it to a wire bonded or flip chip die. The resulting coating (or paste) over the die may possess a very high thermal conductivity without creating an electrically conductive path. Thus, hot spots on the die could be easily spread over the entire die surface and conceivably to the boar to which the component is attached.
Using high thermal conductivity "filled" coating solution for creating low cost thermal bridges between high temperature components or power dissipating die and thermal sinks. The solution may be applied and cured at low temperature (≦100° C.). High thermal conductivity particles such as aluminum nitride, beryllium oxide, and or diamond (thermal conductivity near 2000 W/mK) can be used in this application to provide a highly thermally conducting path. See
Adding a coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) matching filler, such as glass or ceramics, to the coating liquid to increase the bond layer thickness so that the solution can be used as an underfill for flip chip devices. This may provide both tamper resistance protection to the die while improving its thermal cycle and shock loading reliability as do many other underfills. Another advantage to this configuration is that these coatings may provide a high-temperature underfill solution (>700° C.). Current underfills are limited to relatively low operating temperatures (≦200° C.). An illustration of this is shown in
Use these coatings to create 3D wire bondable or flip chip stacked IC's. These coatings provide a unique high-temperature (>200° C.) solution for chip stacking. The coating bond layer thickness can be made as thin as 100 nm, allowing for the thinnest possible interface formed at low temperature. The coating bonds are very strong and rigid allowing the possibility of wire bonding at higher stack levels without stack compliance (smashing) causing problems. The thinner bonding layers would decrease thermal resistance, thus improving heat transfer. High thermal conductivity particles may also be added to improve heat transfer. The majority of chip or wafer stacking adhesives are not hermetic, which can lead to corrosion and degradation of the bonding interface over time. See
Applying coating over high frequency electronic components to create a low dielectric coating (Er=3 to 10) to improve RF performance. These devices may then be encapsulated using standard methods and encapsulants to improve their reliability and handling characteristics without degrading their electrical performance. See

Four Purls Yarn Shop is located in beautiful, downtown Winter Haven, Florida. Open Monday through Saturday, our shop is staffed by knowledgeable and dedicated "yarnistas" happy to assist any and all knitters, crocheters, weavers and spinners to the best of our abilities. Whether fiber arts is your hobby or your passion, you will find something in our inventory of high-quality knitting and crochet yarns, books, patterns, needles and notions.
We offer a relaxed and fun environment for the novice to expert. Stop by and sign up for a class, sit and knit, crochet, weave, spin or just be inspired by our beautiful fiber, yarns and roving. The living room is always open! Come spend the day with us.
On Tuesday nights from 5 – 8 p.m., Four Purls is the place to be! We stay open late so you can come and relax, sit around and chat with other fiber enthusiasts; knit, crochet, spin, or weave and enjoy! We appreciate our customers and ask that only projects that are purchased at Four Purls Yarn Shop are worked on here during Knit Night.
We are easily accessible from Lakeland, Davenport, Haines City, Sebring and all of Central Florida, including Tampa and Orlando. Only 10 minutes from Legoland Florida, 25 minutes from Disney, about 45 minutes from Orlando, and 50 minutes from Tampa. Once you see our inventory, you will know why so many yarn enthusiasts make the trip to Four Purls Yarn Shop.
We carry all weights of yarn, including bulky, aran, worsted, DK, sport, sock, and lace in a variety of fibers like merino wool and linen. We also carry fiber for spinning. Our needle selection is outstanding and we have a wide variety of books, patterns, notions, kits, as well as items such as looms for weaving.
Going back to our yarn selection: there isn't a color in the rainbow that isn't in our shop — and the creativity is off the charts. At any given time you might find someone working on something that will inspire your own creativity. Need help finding a pattern, or yarn to match a pattern? Our yarn shop staff is more than happy to help you find the perfect match for your project.
Did we mention that we have a super cool yarn truck called "Follow the Fiber." It's basically a yarn shop on wheels and its claim to fame is that it was the second one in the country and remains the only one in Florida. Want the yarn truck to come to you? Find out how you can make that happen! Book the Yarn Truck

Most of the time, when a girl says she's "getting close" to a guy, it turns out she is starting to fall for him, as in love (romantic kind). Is it possible for a girl to "get close" but not have romantic feelings for him, ever?

Just getting close to a guy? Yes, if my best friend in high school counts. We weren't an item because we both realized it wasn't for us, but loved hanging out together, so that's all we did. Every night, every weekend... there was no sex, kissing, hand holding, cuddling... just a hug goodnight.
I guess I should point out he is very religious (I am not). He just liked me as a friend, and I him. When he did start to date this girl from his church, we stopped hanging out as often. When we did, it would be a group of us (his girlfriend included).
If I'm dating a guy and I say I'm getting close to him, then it could be in the early stages of falling for him.00|00|0

The greatest investment you can make is in the hearts and lives of people for eternity. These are the investments that keep on giving—sometimes for generations! Did you know that your life insurance policy can be used to make an eternal impact in the kingdom of God? You can give the gift of life insurance to help us continue spreading the message of biblical authority and the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Here's a quick overview of how this works: If you have a life insurance policy that has outlasted its original purpose, you can make it a gift to Answers in Genesis by giving it outright or naming us as a beneficiary. You automatically receive a charitable income tax deduction for your gift. Now, with your gift we can either
- Keep the policy until maturity. This provides another option for you to receive additional tax deductions by making an annual gift to cover the premium of the policy.
- Cash in the policy. This gives you the opportunity to see firsthand what your generous gift accomplished for the kingdom.
We are so thankful for those who partner with us in reaching out to the church and a lost world with the vital message of biblical authority and the gospel. We couldn't do what we do without people like you who give generously. Your gift makes an eternal impact in the kingdom of God. You can learn more about planned giving at GenesisGift.org.

Legal drama, police procedural
Years on air
No. of seasons
No. of episodes
Law & Order was an American police procedural and legal drama series created by Dick Wolf for NBC. It ran for 20 seasons and spawned four Law & Order-branded spin-offs, as well as several other spin-offs set outside the New York Police Department. There was also a 1998 TV movie, Exiled: A Law & Order Movie.
Series summaryEdit
Each episode of Law & Order follows a complete criminal prosecution, from the initial investigation by police detectives to the subsequent prosecution, with the first half hour following the former and the last half hour the latter. The show rotated casts several times over the course of its 20-year run, but its most famous character probably remains detective Lennie Brisco, played by Jerry Orbach.
Westphall connections to Law & OrderEdit
- In "Law & Disorder", an episode of Homicide: Life on the Street, the pre-credits sequence sees Law & Order's detective Mike Logan (Chris Noth) delivering a criminal (played by film director John Waters) into the custody of the Baltimore PD.
- After that season three episode, seasons four, six and seven featured true crossover stories, with storylines starting in Law & Order and concluding on Homicide, which followed it immediately. In order: Law & Order "Charm City" sees New York being attacked by a domestic terrorist who is then brought to Baltimore in Homicide "For God and Country"; "Baby, it's You (part 1/2)" begins with a body in New York and ends in Baltimore, where the victim was raped; and finally "Sideshow (part 1/2)" see the two teams investigating the murder of an important official.
- New York Undercover featured appearances by Emil Skoda (JK Simmons), a police psychologist who appeared in several Law & Order series.
- Law & Order: Special Victims Unit was based on the titular (and fictional) unit, which dealt with victims of sexual crimes. One of its main characters was John Munch (Richard Belzer), who was originally a regular character in Homicide: Life on the Street.
- Law & Order: Criminal Intent focused on high-profile cases and showed scenes from the private lives of the victims and criminals, giving the viewer an insight into their 'intent'.
- Law & Order: Trial by Jury focused entirely on the legal process as the prosecution and defense prepare and execute their cases.
- Law & Order: LA was a short-lived attempt to revive the Law & Order format, moving the action out of New York for the first time in the US franchise's history.
- The New York Ledger was a newspaper featured frequently in Law & Order; the TV series Deadline followed the reporters that worked on it.
Non-Westphall connectionsEdit
- The Law & Order franchise has been sold to other countries, with Russian, French, British and South African versions of Law & Order and its spin-offs. However, to date none of them have featured crossovers or references to the US franchise.
- Crime & Punishment was a documentary series following real-life lawyers in New York. Although it was closely linked with Law & Order, even using a remixed version of the theme tune, the real-life nature of the show means it cannot be included in the multiverse.

Quadrant Security Group and partner UK Broadband provide wireless network solution to Cleveland Police in the UK
(ENP Newswire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) ENP Newswire - 03 September 2014 Release date- 02092014 - Across the UK, ANPR cameras provide the police with critical data for crime prevention and prosecution.
Retrieving this data quickly, securely and cost-effectively - from fleets that often stretch across whole counties - is a challenge many forces face.
At Cleveland Police the response to this challenge seemed obvious. The Force explored technical options and specified a solution that would involve going wireless with their ANPR camera fleet. Unlike other areas, where the requirement to have a direct line of sight between wireless units and base stations can be prohibitive, Cleveland as a policing area is ideally suited to establishing wireless networks.
With all operational specifications decided, Cleveland Police were now (towards the end of 2012) looking for an integration partner who could deliver the solution as well as the savings, and had the certification and experience to work on this security-critical and sensitive project.
Exploiting 'freebie' frequency bands The winning solution, designed by Quadrant Security Group (QSG) in partnership with UK Broadband, achieved annual savings of GBP60k and proved once more that the devil is in the detail.
Aaron Plant at QSG said: 'The traditional approach would have been to put in a broadband line for each camera, but that comes with recurring costs for the fixed line rental, which can be quite high over time. We know from our everyday engagement with police forces, that they prefer capital investment over recurring costs, so finding a solution that wouldn't incur ongoing charges was very much on our radar.' 'The equipment was tested at Cleveland Police and we trained their staff on how to deploy it' In close co-operation with technology partner UK Broadband, QSG presented a unique solution that made use of special proprietary equipment to use wireless technology. Not only did Cleveland Police save on line rental, it would not incur any ongoing cost for the solution.
Plug & play radio units In total, 22 base stations were delivered along with 30 radio units to attach to the cameras. The problem: in order to protect camera locations, the equipment had to be deployed fast, securely and covertly - and not by QSG engineers but by the force itself. That meant equipment couldn't be clunky or delicate.
To make the deployment as swift as possible, QSG integrated antennae, radio and lightning protection into compact radio units, equipped with specially designed bracketry for fast and easy installation.
Due to remote locations and fairly uncontrolled environments of the equipment in situ, QSG and the experts from UK Broadband also delivered the necessary network hardening, protecting units and all connections against intrusion.
Chris Cope from UK Broadband said: 'The equipment was tested at Cleveland Police and we trained their staff on how to deploy it. We also had to do some fine-tuning on the configuration to make best use of the very limited spectrum available.' Real-life conditions proved to be different from lab conditions, when the units in the field exhibited some performance issues.
Chris Cope: 'Some early deployments were in close proximity to some of the mobile carriers' equipment and were getting errors. After analysing the issues, we quickly installed some band pass filters to eradicate the problem. Just another example of how it's sometimes necessary to field-test the solution to adapt it perfectly to a challenging habitat.' The Head of Technical Surveillance for Cleveland Police summarised the project: 'QSG and UK Broadband came to us with a relatively unique package. It allowed us to grasp an opportunity for cost savings while enabling us to put in a highly sophisticated infrastructure that supports the Force in its work every day. It was an innovative idea that reflects our ethos as an organisation, but it is also testament to the expert knowledge from QSG and UK Broadband which made it all happen.' The tender process for the project began towards the end of 2012 and the solution went live in August 2013.

The Warders' Guild Sacred Book of: Attacks, Atrocities, and Other Abhorrent Deeds Done to; Our Honored Members, Faithful Friends, Acclaimed Allies, and Other Innocent or Incidental Persons of Note and Worth to Our Polity.
Also known as the Warders' Book of Grudges
Also known as: BoG
Opened This Day of October 24, 2008 and Never Forgotten Since
Page, the First:
Let it be known to all readers of this sacred tome that the following unjust and unannounced attacks, and other forms of treachery, have been done to Warders Guild members of good standing and (or) to other persons of worthy note to the Warders Guild by the testimony of those innocents so afflicted.
All Guild members of good standing are exhorted to apply the Guild Lord's word such that:
1. Justice shall be weighed for these foul actions. 2. Suffering price (wergeld) shall be named for these despicable deeds. 3. Wergeld shall be collected in full for these vile depredations upon person and property. 4. Lessons in humility shall be taught to these accursed ones when, and how, the means present themselves.
The following is a sample entry in our BoG:
Entry the seventh: 11-10-08 In the town of Tesso, the essence-of-faithlessness-and-dishonor called "Sxxxxx" did accost the Honorable Warder-in-training "Lxxxxx" as she did go about her lawful purposes. The thing "Sxxxxx" then made strenuous efforts to overawe and berate our comrade to act as a beast of burden and carry it's demand for conversation to Milord "Hxxxxx."
Though still only in training and not nearly powerful enough to face "Sxxxxx"-thing alone, honorable "Lxxxxx" did laugh in the face of that villain and its many high powered Guildmates as she alerted Milord to this attempt at intimidation.
Milord, and all Warders available, did rally to Tesso to confront this enemy force despite being outnumbered at least three to one and overmatched by sheer physical power (1 level 80, 3 level 70+, and 1 level 22 versus multiple level 80s, 70s, and other lesser ranks none lower than 33).
Repeatedly did these opposing forces close in battle and there was much giving and taking of great hurt. However, as before, the would-be-but-not-a-man "Sxxxxx" did begin a battle and then run away leaving its followers to carry on the conflict.
Despite being cast down all too often, the five Warders did maintain their lines, honor, and presence on the field until the enemy finally withdrew. Moreover, Milord did negotiate a fair and honorable peace with the Guild "Uxxxxx Ixxxxx" who was, at the time, allied to the well named "Bxxxxx Sxxxxx."
The names of the Warders present for this are: Milord "Hxxxxx" Milady "Lxxxxx" The Warder Champion of Retribution "Uxxxxx" The Warder-in-training (but already well versed in honor) "Lxxxxx" Your humble chronicler Sir "Kxxxxx"

In 2005, Ibrahim Sara, an Egyptian-born man living in New Jersey, signed up with L-3 Communications, a San Diego-based defense contractor that has provided translators and linguists to the US Army in Iraq and Afghanistan. The job pays well: for a US citizen, the average salary is $176,000. It's not known how many translators are currently working in Iraq; L-3 says it has 6,900 employees, a mix of US citizens, Iraqis, and other nationals. But it's an exceedingly dangerous job. Over a third of the private contractors killed in Iraq, more than 200, have been translators or interpreters. One such casualty was Sara, who died with three Marines on patrol in November of 2006.
The next month, the US Army decided to dump L-3 and award its $4.6 billion, 5-year contract to a new company, called Global Linguist Solutions, which had been formed specifically to compete for this contract. It was headed by two men with extensive experience in languages and national security: the president, James "Spider" Marks, is a retired major general and was senior vice president of McNeil Technologies, another major defense contractor that also competes in the translation market, and its vice president, Michael Simone, was a former intelligence officer and commander of the Defense Language Institute in Monterey, California.
After the Army decided to go with GLS, L-3 protested to the Government Accountability Office, which ruled in favor of L-3. (L-3's stock price also dropped, and DynCorp and McNeil's both jumped.) The Army asked the GAO to reconsider its decision, but on June 8 the GAO said it wouldn't.
The issue had been in limbo until today: INSCOM handed the contract to GLS, again. Will L-3, the incumbent, protest again? We'll see. Given the GAO's analysis of the GLS bid (mainly that they didn't have the expertise), it's hard to see how GLS could have overcome those criticisms in less than a year. I bet DynCorp investors are happy; that stock moved up 8.8% today on the news.
Underneath this dry account of government procurement are a couple of remarkable things: One, the amount of money involved, especially the $5 billion price tag for the contract. But also, in 2005, L-3 purchased another contractor, Titan, for $2 billion, largely because of Titan's language service assets. Other companies are also involved: Thomas Computer Solutions, a Virginia-based contractor, received a $730 million contract in late 2006. There are probably others. I would love to know what all goes into "language services" and why it's so expensive.
Two, we're used to hearing that the US government faces a shortage of language experts. This isn't entirely true: the government has all the experts it needs — if it hires them from the contractors. This is a side of the language and national security story that's never been reported, and even now that private contractors are coming under increasing scrutiny, it's still not picked up on. Here's the thing: the translator/linguist shortage in the federal gov't has always been due to poaching by private contractors, who pay more than federal salaries.
Here's the other thing: I used to see DARPA projects in machine translation, etc., as a gee-whiz techno fantasy by people who were predisposed to downplaying human contributions. Now I see it as a competitive human resource response. If we only had machines to do the work, we wouldn't have to give so much $ to the contractors.
