Printer-friendly versionPDF version

Customs and Border Protection is one of DHS's largest and most complex components, with a priority mission of keeping terrorists and their weapons out of the United States. The PSPO is responsible for systems that support the CBP mission, especially processing travelers at points of entry throughout the nation. This work that CACI will perform provides overarching project support and security to assist PSPO with the development of new—and maintenance of the existing—CBP computer and automated application systems involved in passing data throughout the network, building a database, and maintaining computer security.

CACI has supported the DHS mission since 2002, providing IT solutions through leadership, program support, innovation, and quality services under a variety of contracts. For this task order, the company will draw on its rich history of proven project management expertise and a solid team of partners with deep knowledge of the CBP mission. The CACI team brings critical staff that will help PSPO carry out its essential tasks with seamless continuity of service and no disruption of operations.

Bill Fairl, CACI's President of U.S. Operations, said, "This award significantly expands our presence in the Department of Homeland Security in the very critical arena of border security. In helping to safeguard our country, we increase our ability to be a national asset for national priorities."

According to CACI President and CEO Paul Cofoni, "The threats to America's borders and homeland are always present, and CACI works at the technological heart of efforts to counter these dangers. We are able to provide the expertise in support of CBP's mission of keeping terrorists and their weapons out of the United States."
