Since 1970, National Support Services-NA (NSS) has provided superior IT hardware and software maintenance to medium and large scale computing environments. As the primary independent service organization of Grumman Aerospace, we provided internal and commercial IT services to the critical operations of major programs and customers. We began pursuing commercial business on a regional basis in the New York City metropolitan area in 1975. In 1976, NSS was incorporated as Grumman Systems Support Corporation (GSSC) in the State of Maryland and was among the first companies to achieve recognition within the independent or "third party" hardware maintenance industry during the mid 1980s.NSS maintains several thousand active accounts that fall into two types of clients; end-user companies and channel partners. End-user customer accounts include small, medium and large commercial public and private businesses in the petrochemical manufacturing, computer hardware manufacturing, health care, financial services, computer software development, utilities and educational vertical industries.Channel partners include large IT outsourcing companies, computer hardware manufacturers, specialty integrators and resellers. Channel partners engage NSS as an exclusive or semi-exclusive authorized service representative or as a preferred service subcontractor to provide support solutions for the IT service needs of their clients from the implementation of newly installed product to support for legacy systems.
