PAR Technology, based in New Hartford, also provides technology products for restaurants and retailers.

The three-and-a-half year AFRL contract focuses on an “Integrated Information Management System Cyber Technology Maturation Framework,” PAR Government said in a news release issued Tuesday. Under the contract, PAR Government seeks to develop and sustain a cyber-systems “testbed.”

The company said it will employ, test, evaluate, and transition new cyber-defense operating concepts and AFRL Information Directorate-developed cyber technology and products.

PAR Government’s intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) sector will perform the work.

“PAR Government will draw upon our staff’s in-depth experience and reputation in integrated information management and assurance to assist AFRL with their mission,” Matt Cicchinelli, president of PAR Government, said in the release. “We look forward to our continuing and expanding partnership with the Air Force Research Laboratory in support of this important program.”
