The Department of Homeland Security named three contractors to a $3 billion blanket purchase agreement to supply financial management software across the highly federated agency in an effort to unify its disparate financial systems.
Carahsoft, CGI Federal and Mythics won places on the BPA, which has been in the works for at least four years, but slowed by lawsuits, protests and pushback from industry on the structure of the procurement vehicle – which was crafted around the same time as a separate but related $1 billion contract to manage the shift from legacy systems to modern, cloud-based software.
