In 2002, the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) promulgated Seapower 21, a framework for aligning, organizing and integrating the U.S. Navy to meet the wide variety of challenges that lay ahead. The CNO called upon the entire Navy to find ways to become more efficient and effective. To meet Seapower 21 objectives and to increase efficiency, the NAVSEA Warfare Centers established the Seaport Enhanced (SeaPort-e) Multiple Award Contract (MAC) vehicle, using a web-based, e-business procurement portal to facilitate performance-based service acquisition, leverage buying power, improve business intelligence and reduce cycle time.
In October 2004, the Virtual SYSCOM Commanders expanded the ordering community of SeaPort-e to include all Virtual SYSCOM activities and to use SeaPort-e across the Virtual SYSCOM. Additionally, other activities, including the Military Sealift Command, Strategic Systems Programs, Office of Naval Research, and the United States Marine Corps have chosen to use SeaPort-e.
WALA Networking Technologies (WALA) is excited to support the U.S. Navy (USN) and other agencies utilizing the SeaPort-e Enhanced (IDIQ) procurement system in fulfilling its responsibilities for providing services that align with the various missions supported by the activities and technical capabilities that comprise the various ordering offices and will provide exceptional professional support.

SeaPort-E Quality Assurance ProgramWALA’s Quality Assurance Program (QAP) defines our approach to ensuring quality. Our QAP details processes and methods for maintaining a high level of quality throughout the program. An integral part of our PMP, our QAP describes how quality will be managed throughout the life cycle of the program. It also includes the processes and procedures for ensuring how quality planning, assurance and control are all conducted. All stakeholders should be familiar with how quality will be planned, assured and controlled. This document will ensure that WALA provides the highest quality products, services and documentation for all work on the USN contract. Toward that end, we will perform quality planning, quality assurance (QA) and quality control (QC) as a regular part of our daily activities.
The scope of the QAP includes the following: Roles and Responsibilities, Documentation, Quality Planning, Standard Operating Procedures and Testing.
WALA will review our plan for each acquired Task and update it as needed. We will comply with all applicable USN policies and procedures. We will capture lessons learned as a part of continuing quality management efforts at the end of each program phase and use it to improve program standards
Our approach to quality assurance is consistent with the following standards:
ISO 9001:2008, Quality Management Standard.
ISO 20000-1:2011, Service Management System.
ISO 27001:2005, Information Technology – Security Techniques – Information Security Management Systems – Requirements, CMMI methodologies and practices, ITIL methodologies and practices.
We will work with USN to define quality requirements for each activity performed by WALA personnel.
