Flir’s imaging systems “enhance the efficient and safe location and transport of injured personnel and medics in the field,” said President and CEO Earl Lewis. An initial delivery order of $19 million was received. Work under the contract will be performed at Flir’s Billerica, Mass., facility; shipments under the initial delivery order are expected to be completed by 2014.
