Sperry Marine New Orleans support center back up
Northup Grumman Corp. said Monday that repairs have been completed at its Sperry Marine North American Support Center in New Orleans and the facility is now operating at 100 percent capacity.
The center houses Sperry Marine's worldwide service control centers, dispatching service calls around the world for shipboard maintenance and repair. Equipment repairs and a large parts inventory are also located at the center, which was severely damaged during Hurricane Katrina.
Since then, Sperry Marine has been relying on its offices in Houston and Mobile. Other Sperry Marine service centers in Rotterdam, Singapore, Hamburg and London took over the service dispatch function during the transition period.
