The General Services Administration’s Federal Systems Integration and Management Center (GSA FEDSIM) has awarded CGI Federal Inc. a multi-year contract worth $522.6 million on behalf of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to help modernize and support EPA’s technology systems.
The Information Technology Enterprise Development (ITED) contract is slated to include “an incrementally funded 1-year base period and six 1-year option periods” that will help reimagine the current cybersecurity capabilities of the agency.
“EPA continues to evolve as an agency. We must confront the nation’s most urgent health and environmental challenges today by expanding our range of innovative technology capabilities, aligning those capabilities to our mission, and optimizing our overall mission support operations,” said Vaughn Noga, EPA’s chief information officer.
The ITED program is geared towards developing enterprise solutions, including shared services and capabilities that will help streamline operations at the agency and advance its climate change prevention goals.
“The newly awarded ITED contract provides new opportunities to meet these challenges through technical innovation and strengthens our efforts to protect human health and the environment for the American public. We look forward to leveraging the collaborative expertise of CGI and the robust team of strategic partners they assembled to deliver these services and capabilities,” said Noga.
CGI Federal has been a long-standing partner with the Federal government and has supported many programs, including the Central Data Exchange (CDX) program at the EPA.
“As EPA continues to focus on reducing risks associated with its mission, their investment in technology enables the agency to respond with greater agility to new requirements,” said Jay Hadley, CGI’s senior vice-president of consulting services. “Given its critical role in implementing key programs under the Inflation Reduction Act and Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, EPA will continue to require practical and pragmatic use of innovative technologies to increase collaboration across government and with external stakeholders.”
