BlueWater was awarded a 5-year contract to provide Drupal, web, and mobile app development and sustainment support for the FEMA's Office of External Affairs websites, applications, and mobile apps. We are proud to have supported FEMA and its critical mission since 2007, and look forward to continuing our support to improve and modernize FEMA's communication channels to better serve the American public, state and local agencies, and emergency responders before, during, and after disasters. The BlueWater team also re-launched a top-to-bottom redesign of FEMA's website which incorporates a new unified design system, plain language approach to content, and geolocating filters to personalize the experience. Check it out at: https://www.fema.gov/. Great job to all those who contributed to building out the site!
For today's employee spotlight, we'd like to recognize the efforts of BlueWater's Program Manager, Duke McIntyre, and the entire 28th Operational Weather Squadron (OWS) team at Shaw Air Force Base, South Carolina.

We are grateful for the OWS team's round-the-clock effort providing weather support to the USCENTCOM AOR through scripting, weather system administration, and meteorological forecasting. BlueWater is proud to have Duke and the OWS crew on our team!
