CACI awarded $1.77 billion task order to support Joint Improvised-Threat Defeat Organization
CACI International Inc announced on December 5 that it has been awarded a task order, with a ceiling value of $1.77 billion, to provide deployable analytical operations, integrated intelligence, and training services to the Joint Improvised-Threat Defeat Organization (JIDO). The five-year task order, awarded under the General Services Administration OASIS contract, represents new work for Arlington, VA-based CACI in its Intelligence Services market area. The anticipated spend is estimated at $875.6 million, which the company will be recording as an increase to its total backlog.
JIDO supports Department of Defense Combatant Commands as part of the Defense Threat Reduction Agency. It provides tactical responsiveness in support of counter-terrorism, counter-insurgency, and countering improvised explosive devices. Under the contract, the CACI team will support JIDO’s critical Focused Support/Decisive Effort mission by assisting joint forces in integrating capabilities, technologies, and processes to disrupt and defeat enemy networks in locations around the globe.
John Mengucci, CACI’s chief operating officer and president of U.S. operations, said, “The Joint Improvised-Threat Defeat Organization’s mission is one of the most critical for the safety of joint forces and the populations they protect. Our globally deployed team provides time-sensitive support and sophisticated intelligence fusion technologies that have proven to be highly effective in saving lives and enabling our combatant commands to stay ahead of complex and growing threats.”
According to CACI President and Chief Executive Officer Ken Asbury, “CACI is committed to this strategic partnership with the Joint Improvised-Threat Defeat Organization and the troops they serve. With nearly 10 years in support of JIDO and its predecessor organizations, we understand the critical nature of this trusted relationship, and we are honored to lead this team of mission-focused experts. We are convinced that by integrating the best people and technologies of industry and government, we are breaking new ground in the service of our country.”
