CACI Wins a New Contract
Recently, CACI International Inc. (CACI) declared that it has received a $36 million subcontract from Lockheed Martin. Per the contract, the company will be engaged in supporting the Department of Defense (DoD) Cyber Crime Center (DC3) through providing cyber forensics and information technology solutions. The contract includes one base year followed by four option years.
Lockheed Martin and DoD will deploy CACI International’s specialized services including its advanced computer, audio-visual forensic experts and software engineers to control and improve their research and design forensic techniques, augment information technology enterprise methods and strengthen cyber counter intelligence analysis. With the contract, the company will be able to extend its coverage in the developing cyberspace solutions industry.
Management averred that CACI International through its enhanced cyber solutions will be assisting Lockheed Martin to ramp up its entire process of forensic analysis and enhance its cyberspace operations. The company’s state-of-the-art cyberspace solutions and the urge to continuously re-innovate its field of expertise are attributes that make CACI International the best option for the contract.

Contract funding orders in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 came in at $901.1 million, increasing 3.4% year over year and 12.6% sequentially. Such laudatory advances make the company retain its formidable position in the industry even at times when fiscal scenario appears grim in the global economy.
