CACI International Inc today announced that it has been awarded a five-year blanket purchase agreement, with a not-to-exceed ceiling value of $45 million, to provide information technology services to the Social Security Administration's Office of Telecommunications and Systems Operations. The contract comes to CACI as a direct result of its acquisition of CMS Information Services, Inc., announced March 1, 2004. As the Social Security Administration increases its services to the American taxpayer, its need for IT support is expected to grow significantly. Under the contract terms, the former CMS team, now with CACI, will continue to help the Social Security Administration optimize its IT systems, installing and maintaining hardware and software, managing local and wide area networks, supporting computer operations, and providing help desk and related IT support. Work has already begun at agency headquarters in Baltimore, Maryland and a remote location in Falls Church, Virginia. CACI may also be asked to support the agency's data operations centers, field, and district offices in the U.S and Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Pacific Trust Territories. Ken Johnson, CACI's President of U.S. Operations, stated, "This award significantly expands CACI's presence at the Social Security Administration and within the federal civilian community. We offer expertise and experience with the federal community that assures the agency of continued high-quality support for a wide range of information technology requirements." Dr. J.P. (Jack) London, CACI Chairman, President, and CEO, said, "We are pleased to see the rapid results of CACI's acquisition of CMS Information Services. We are following a strategy of organic growth, coupled with growth through acquisitions, that is enabling us meet business goals and sustain our leadership as a world-class provider of information technology solutions to the federal government."
