CACI Awarded $13 Million Contract to Support Defense Acquisition Management
Continues Services for CACI-developed, Web-based Information System -- CACI International announced today that it has been awarded a prime contract, valued at $13 million over the contract's life cycle, to continue its support for the Defense Acquisition Management Information Retrieval (DAMIR) system for the Office of the Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics. The contract includes a 7.5-month base period and three option years. Originally developed by CACI, DAMIR gives the Defense Department a powerful new web-based tool for managing and overseeing the acquisition of major weapon and information systems. The award increases both the size and scope of CACI's effort and continues the ongoing expansion of CACI's business in solutions that play a vital role in the transformation and enhancement of government services. 
DAMIR is a web-based suite of applications that replaces the Defense Department's legacy acquisition reporting system with more effective tools for managing the cost, schedule, and performance of acquisition programs. It provides acquisition managers at all levels with access to shared information that is accurate, relevant, consistent, and near real-time. It further enhances the oversight process by providing robust search and analytical tools. DAMIR plays a critical role as one of the enterprise solutions that will help the government meet its goals for transforming and improving the way it does business. By establishing a net-centric information exchange environment, DAMIR is able to interface and exchange data with systems across the military services, allowing users to access a wide range of information faster and more efficiently. Moreover, DAMIR can be accessed by Congress, the U.S. Government Accountability Office, and the Office of Management and Budget, providing crucial insight into defense acquisition for these important federal organizations. According to Paul Cofoni, President of U.S. Operations, "CACI has worked hard to ensure DAMIR meets the goals of the Office of the Secretary of Defense to streamline acquisition management and oversight. We're especially pleased to support information-sharing between the Defense Department and Congress, as well as all the services, to help the government meet its transformation goals." Dr. J.P. (Jack) London, CACI Chairman, President, and CEO, said, "CACI continues to focus on sustaining client relationships as part of our strategic growth plan. We are proud of our continuing support for the Office of the Secretary of Defense, and we remain committed to aligning our CACI services and solutions to support the federal government's most critical needs in defense, intelligence, homeland security, and government transformation."
