IRVING — EFJ, Inc. announced today that its 3e Technologies International subsidiary has been funded by a U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) customer to provide the U.S. Navy with a secure wireless video and mobility solution. The funding is part of a time and materials-based contract vehicle with a ceiling of $7.7 million. The order is currently incrementally funded in the amount of $2.2 million.

"We are especially pleased to be providing another important solution to the Navy which imparts additional safety and security to our sailors as they support the Global War on Terrorism," said Michael E. Jalbert, chairman and chief executive officer of EFJ, Inc. "We expect that the solution will greatly enhance a ship's force protection stature and significantly reduce the ship's reaction time to potential threats by providing a cost effective means of distributing smart video analytics data in real time directly to the ship's decision makers -- regardless of where they may be within the ship."
