R3 Announces New Office in Niceville, Florida

R3 Program Manager, Ken Normand, accepts the keys to our new Niceville, FL office.

R3 is pleased to announce the opening of our newest office in Niceville, Florida, further strengthening our presence in Northwest Florida. For years, we’ve supported key training programs at EOD School in Niceville, the Naval Diving and Salvage Training Center in Panama City Beach, and the 801st Red Horse Training Squadron and USAF EOD at Silver Flag, Tyndall AFB.

Our growth across the Southeastern U.S. includes new contracts supporting curriculum development and content conversion under the Navy’s Ready Relevant Learning (RRL) initiative. We also have pending awards supporting the Center for EOD and Diving at Eglin AFB and Tyndall AFB.

The Niceville office joins our brick and mortar locations in San Diego, CA, and Virginia Beach, VA. R3’s investment in physical office space reflects our commitment to our customers. With our emphasis and focus on continued and new work in the Southeastern U. S., R3 is “voting with our presence” – investing in empowered Program Managers who live and work alongside their customers, so that they are better in tune with their needs and able to anticipate and solve any requests or issues before, or as, they arise.

The Niceville office is scheduled to officially open in early October 2025.
