The U.S. Department of Labor announced this week that Systems Planning and Analysis, Inc. (SPA) received the 2020 HIRE Vets Medallion—Gold Award for large employers – recognizing the company’s commitment to recruit, hire, and retain veterans.

“We are grateful to have so many veteran employees as members of the SPA team,” said Dr. William Vantine, SPA president and CEO.

“They bring incredible value to our company through their skills, leadership and experience…all of which are essential to the high-quality and high impact solutions we provide to our clients protecting our Nation’s security.”

“We are honored that for the third year in a row, the Department of Labor has recognized SPA’s contributions in support of our nation’s veterans.”

The Honoring Investments in Recruiting and Employing American Military Veterans Act (HIRE Vets Act), is the only federal-level veterans’ employment award that recognizes a job creators’ commitment to hiring America’s veterans. The Award recognizes employers who hire and retain veterans, including their efforts to establish employee development programs and veteran specific benefits to improve retention.
