Integrated Network Solutions

Revenue in the second quarter for the Integrated Network Solutions segment was $396 million, a 3 percent increase compared with $385 million in the prior year. Solid growth in CapRock Communications and Healthcare Solutions was partially offset by a decline in IT Services revenue, primarily from the loss of the Patriot program. Operating income for the segment was $32 million compared with $20 million in the prior year. Non-GAAP operating income in the prior year was $29 million.

Orders for CapRock Communications increased 21 percent while Healthcare Solutions orders more than doubled in the second quarter compared with the prior year. CapRock Communications received $84 million in orders under the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) contract to provide end-to-end managed terrestrial network services. Harris was also awarded a contract extension from Royal Caribbean Cruises as well as contracts from Baker Hughes, Anadarko, and a country in Europe totaling $35 million for satellite communications solutions.
