Case Study: United States Air Force achieves uninterrupted software maintenance and avoided extra development costs with NCC Group escrow services

United States Air Force - Customer Case Study

The United States Air Force needed a trusted escrow partner when a development contractor producing critical software for a non-appropriated vendor required that its valuable source code be held in a technology escrow account. To protect ongoing access and maintenance rights, the Air Force engaged NCC Group for its Escrow & Verification services to facilitate and maintain deposits throughout the contract lifecycle.

NCC Group created a customized escrow agreement, proactively archived successive code releases, audited deposits for completeness and usability, and stored materials in secure vaults. In 2008, after the three‑year contract ended, NCC Group disbursed accurate, up‑to‑date source code to the United States Air Force, eliminating downtime and avoiding additional development expenses by enabling immediate continued maintenance.
