RICHARDSON, TX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--GlobeRanger Corp., the leading global provider of end-to-end enterprise solutions and professional services for RFID, mobility and sensor-based solutions, announced it has been awarded a subcontract with SRA International, Inc. on a $4.4 million pRFID contract with the U.S. Marine Corps Systems Command (MARCORSYSCOM).
