2013 compared to 2012 is&gs 2019 net sales decreased $ 479 million , or 5% ( 5 % ) , for 2013 compared to 2012 .
the decrease was attributable to lower net sales of about $ 495 million due to decreased volume on various programs ( command and control programs for classified customers , ngi and eram programs ) ; and approximately $ 320 million due to the completion of certain programs ( such as total information processing support services , the transportation worker identification credential and the outsourcing desktop initiative for nasa ) .

backlog backlog increased in 2014 compared to 2013 primarily due to several multi-year international awards and various u.s .
multi-year extensions .
this increase was partially offset by declining activities on various direct warfighter support and command and control programs impacted by defense budget reductions .
backlog decreased in 2013 compared to 2012 primarily due to lower orders on several programs ( such as eram and ngi ) , higher sales on certain programs ( the national science foundation antarctic support and the disa gsm-o ) and declining activities on several smaller programs primarily due to the continued downturn in federal information technology budgets .
trends we expect is&gs 2019 net sales to decline in 2015 in the low to mid single digit percentage range as compared to 2014 , primarily driven by the continued downturn in federal information technology budgets , an increasingly competitive environment , including the disaggregation of existing contracts , and new contract award delays , partially offset by increased sales resulting from acquisitions that occurred during the year .
operating profit is expected to decline in the low double digit percentage range in 2015 primarily driven by volume and an increase in intangible amortization from 2014 acquisition activity , resulting in 2015 margins that are lower than 2014 results .
