At SAIC, sustainability is part of our DNA. It's not just about reducing our own environmental footprint but about empowering our customers, employees and other stakeholders to create meaningful, measurable change. From small daily actions to groundbreaking innovations, we're making a difference.
Environmental stewardship
Sustainability starts with thoughtful actions that create ripple effects. That's why we've prioritized everyday actions that lessen our impact on the planet.
Responsible Procurement: We strive to choose products in our facility operations that improve energy efficiency, reduce waste and enhance air quality.
Reducing E-Waste: Through our vendor relationship, we refurbish or resell retired electronics whenever possible, recycling the rest responsibly. At various events during the year, employees can even securely recycle their personal electronics through our programs.
Paper-Saving Practices: In our facilities, double-sided printing cuts paper usage in half. For remote employees, digital workflows further reduce environmental impact.

Partnering for impact
Our commitment to sustainability goes beyond our own operations. We partner with world-changing organizations to solve complex environmental challenges and make a difference. For example:
With NASA: We help monitor the Earth, from the depths of the oceans to the shifting skies. Our work tracks our ocean health, predicts erosion's effects on the landscape and studies cloud patterns to improve weather forecasts.
With NOAA:
For over a decade, we've built deep-sea sensors that track ocean conditions and provide the data that is used in early tsunami warnings, helping save lives and protect coastal communities.
We also support climate predictions that help prepare for the future. By strengthening NOAA's ability to model and understand the atmosphere, we're helping communities respond to a changing climate.

What makes SAIC unique is our ability to bring these partnerships to life and share their real-world impacts. As a mission integrator, we don't just solve problems - we turn solutions into stories that inspire action. By combining everyday choices with groundbreaking innovation, we are proud to reduce our environmental impact and tackle global challenges to help create a sustainable future.
