Synesis7 Corp. may soon have to install new desks at its office on North Alaska Street in Uptown Butte.

That’s because the company will see around 25 new employees come through its doors in the months ahead thanks to a four-year, $47 million contract that the U.S. Department of Defense recently awarded to the company and to ManTech International Corp., a Virginia-based company collaborating with Synesis7.

As per the award, the companies will provide technical support for the U.S. Navy Naval Air Systems Command’s H-53 Heavy Lift Helicopter and collaborating programs.
