Sierra Nevada Corporation Adds Craig Technologies to Dream Chaser® Dream Team

Sparks, Nev., June 12, 2014 – Sierra Nevada Corporation (SNC) announces it has selected Craig Technologies of Cape Canaveral, Florida, to join its expanding list of 'Dream Team' organizations selected to support SNC's Dream Chaser® program. SNC is developing the Dream Chaser spacecraft as a commercial transportation vehicle to low-Earth orbit. Craig Technologies will provide multiple contracted products and services to SNC. The announcement was made at a press conference today at Craig Technologies Aerospace and Defense Manufacturing Center in Cape Canaveral.

Craig Technologies' first contract is to work with SNC engineers to design and develop a critical part of the Ground Support Equipment (GSE) known as the cradle, a mechanical device used to lift, transport and rotate the Dream Chaser spacecraft during processing. SNC chose to team with Craig Technologies on its Dream Chaser program because of their depth of human spaceflight experience coupled with their end-to-end design-to-production capability including specialty manufacturing, precision machining and fabrication, and test and evaluation services, as well as materials requirement planning and supply chain management systems.

"Today is the start of a relationship that can grow substantially as a continuation of our expansion in Florida" said Mark N. Sirangelo, corporate vice president of SNC's Space Systems. "We are pleased to have Carol (Craig) and her company join forces as part of our Dream Team, which includes top tier companies in over 30 states. Craig Technologies' strong engineering capabilities and outstanding facilities along with their company values and passion are an ideal fit for SNC and our Dream Chaser program. We look forward to exploring ways in which we can continue to work together, returning jobs to the Space Coast and continuing our commitment to small business."

In support of Craig Technologies continual growth as a leading U.S.-Owned, Minority-Owned, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned (SDVO), Economically-Disadvantaged Woman-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB), and Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB), SNC has agreed to sponsor Craig in a mentor-protégé relationship, supporting a common vision of providing each of SNC's and Craig Technologies' customers with agile, innovative and cost-effective solutions from a richly diverse and passionately dedicated workforce, all committed to making history.

Craig Technologies recently invested in the renovation of an existing 161,000 square foot facility in Cape Canaveral. The company leveraged NASA's investment by utilizing the heritage space shuttle depot facility formerly occupied by United Space Alliance and converting it to office and manufacturing space, including the latest high tech, high precision, manufacturing equipment.

"To partner with the SNC Dream Team who marries 'innovation with passion for the mission' provides us an opportunity to fulfill our vision to further strengthen the Space Coast community," said Carol Craig, founder and CEO, Craig Technologies. "We are fortunate to be given this opportunity to help act as a bridge between the world-class manned spaceflight infrastructure that is the Cape Canaveral legacy and the next generation, cutting-edge spacecraft made possible by the dynamic innovation of commercial enterprise. It's an honor to be a part of the Dream Chaser Dream Team."

Dream Chaser provides the only reusable, human-rated lifting-body spacecraft with a commercial runway landing capability, anywhere in the world, and is on the forefront of the commercial human spaceflight industry, offering safe, reliable and cost-effective crew and critical cargo transportation to low-Earth orbit. Dream Chaser is a multi-mission capable spacecraft that has the ability to operate as an independent science platform, or as a logistics vehicle to retrieve, repair, replace, assemble or deploy items in space.
