Company to Provide Information Technology Support to the U.S. Army Human Resources Command
SAN DIEGO and MCLEAN, Va., Aug 18, 2008 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX News Network/ -- Science Applications International Corporation (NYSE: SAI) today announced it has been awarded a task order by the General Services Administration (GSA) Federal Systems Integration and Management (FEDSIM) Center. The task order will provide Information Technology (IT) Support to the U.S. Army Human Resources Command (HRC). The task order has a one year base period of performance, four one year options and a ceiling value of $410 million. Work will initially be performed in Alexandria, Va. and St. Louis, Mo., but will eventually shift to Ft. Knox, Ky., due to Defense Base Closure and Realignment (BRAC) relocations. The task order was awarded under the Information Technology Enterprise Solutions -- 2 Services (ITES-2S) contract.
The HRC manages and directs the Army's personnel systems and human resources. Under the contract, SAIC will help HRC streamline its IT support by consolidating a number of related contracts and implementing a shared-resources approach to workforce management. SAIC will provide services including program and project management, system engineering and integration, enterprise architecture planning, information assurance, training, and help desk support.
"We look forward to expanding our current support for HRC as they meet the challenges of transformation while continuing their critical wartime mission," said Bev Seay, SAIC senior vice president and business unit general manager.
