CACI International (published 25/04/2008)
 

CACI International has announced that it has been awarded an indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) type contract with an estimated value of $82.8 million to continue its support for the Department of Navy Chief Information Officer (DON CIO).


The four-year award (one base year, three option years) positions CACI to continue providing professional, technical, management, and administrative services to support the DON CIO as it guides the Department of Navy information management and information technology transformation initiatives and activities.

The DON CIO is the Navy's resource for directing efforts to create a joint, network-centric environment for the Department of Navy to deliver improved IT services to the organization in the form of advancing its information-sharing capabilities, securing networks, protecting privacy, and ensuring adequate infrastructure, capability, and performance. The DON CIO establishes and implements policy, guidance, and plans for sharing knowledge that enables effective and agile decision-making in support of U.S. Navy and Marines Corps forces.

CACI currently provides a full range of mission support services to the DON CIO office, including both technical and administrative assistance in support of the Navy enterprise worldwide. CACI's team has served the DON CIO since 1999, and as prime contractor has blended additional support groups to sustain seamless operations to assist the DON CIO in completing its mission. CACI support helps the DON CIO to improve capabilities and achieve its goals in a timely fashion.

According to Bill Fairl, CACI President of U.S. Operations, 'CACI offers the Department of Navy Chief Information Officer a unique combination of technical expertise and innovative thought leadership, plus a track record of success. We have a thorough understanding of all DON CIO requirements and processes and can provide proven solutions for helping the DON CIO achieve knowledge dominance for our sailors and marines.'

Paul Cofoni, CACI President and Chief Executive Officer, said, 'CACI is proud to continue assisting the Department of Navy in delivering secure, interoperable, and integrated information management and information technology capabilities to our nation's warfighters. We are dedicated to delivering valuable and strategic services with experienced personnel to sustain and improve critical Navy operations and resources.'
