Lockheed Martin Systems Integration – Owego Explained

Lockheed Martin Systems Integration – Owego (LMSI) was a subsidiary of Lockheed Martin, in the Electronic Systems sector, located in Owego, New York, with approximately 2,500 employees. It used to be known as Lockheed Martin Federal Systems.

Founded as IBM Federal Systems in 1957, it was sold to Loral Corporation in 1994, becoming Loral Federal Systems. Lockheed Martin acquired Loral's electronic systems and systems integration business in 1996.

In 2010, Systems Integration was dissolved and merged with Lockheed Martin Rotary and Mission Systems, with some of the then-current programs transferred to Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control, and received programs from other Lockheed Martin locations that were shuttered at that time.

Since being acquired by Lockheed Martin in 2015, the Owego location performs work from the new Sikorsky line of business,^{[1] [2]} which complements the helicopter work that has historically occurred there.^[3]
