ARLINGTON, Va., Aug 19, 2009 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- CACI International Inc (CACI) announced today it has been awarded an indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity task order contract to continue its support for the U.S. Army's Communications-Electronics Research, Development and Engineering Center (CERDEC) Intelligence and Information Warfare Directorate (I2WD) through the Technical Engineering Support Services (TESS) award. CACI is one of three companies awarded the five-year TESS contract, which has a ceiling value of $900 million.
TESS is a follow-on to the Engineering, Technical, and Operations Support Services (ETOSS) Contract that CACI has held since 2006. Its award continues more than 21 years of CACI support for I2WD under ETOSS and predecessor programs. For TESS, CACI will provide scientific and engineering support to assist I2WD in its mission of modernizing Army intelligence and information warfare capabilities and providing mission-critical support to warfighters worldwide. The award continues CACI's support for CERDEC I2WD and grows the company's business in command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C4ISR) programs.
CACI's work with I2WD will include researching, prototyping, and developing systems for improved intelligence collection through the use of networked sensors. The company will support electronic combat capabilities to counter both conventional and cyber weapons, as well as information warfare systems capable of mounting both offensive and defensive operations.
Bill Fairl, CACI's President of U.S. Operations, said "CACI intelligence and information warfare solutions for the U.S. Army assure mission continuity and give troops the integrated information systems they need to protect themselves and defeat adversaries. Our experts will help I2WD identify, develop, evaluate, and insert emerging information technologies into operational systems to provide reliable and effective tools in the war on terrorism."
According to CACI President and CEO Paul Cofoni, "We are proud the U.S. Army continues to choose CACI for the proven value, expertise, reliability, and thought leadership we provide. CACI's award of the Technical Engineering Support Services contract strengthens our presence in the intelligence community and sustains our partnership with the U.S. Army's Communications-Electronics Research, Development and Engineering Center.
