United States : Contract to provide acquisitions management support for US DoD secured by CACI
Publish Date : 29-Jun-2016
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) has selected CACI International to offer acquisitions management support for the US Department of Defense (DoD).
The indefinite delivery / indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract valued at $40m will give development and sustainment support for the DoD's wide area workflow (WAWF) and electronic document access (EDA) systems over a period of 3 years.
The WAWF has been created to get rid of paper from the receipt / acceptance and invoice / payments process of the contracting lifecycle.
DoD using WAWF has saved almost $250m in invoice processing yearly.
CACI US operations president and COO John Mengucci said: "CACI's software and systems development expertise has helped make the wide area workflow an incredibly reliable, mission-critical system for DoD.
"This system currently processes an average of 636,000 electronic documents a month, and has resulted in significant cost savings for our customers."
The DoD by combining WAWF and EDA systems under one contract will improve its post-award contract management.
With its web-based applications for better processing of contract documentation, together with the EDA system, which offer a repository for DoD's procurement instruments and associated documents the CACI will support the WAWF e-Business Suite.
CACI president and CEO Ken Asbury said: "By building enduring partnerships with the Defense Logistics Agency and Defense Procurement and Acquisition Policy office, and leveraging our deep subject matter expertise in acquisition management, we are improving the speed and accuracy with which the department conducts business, and saving taxpayer dollars."
