Central Asia
ARLINGTON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
CACI International Inc (NYSE:CACI)
announced today it has been awarded a $62.5 million contract to support
counter narco-terrorism (CNT) work for U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) in
Afghanistan and throughout CENTCOM’s area of responsibility (AOR). This
task order was awarded under the Rapid Response 3rd
Generation contract vehicle and represents continuing work for CACI,
reinforcing its presence in its Integrated Security Solutions market
area.
CENTCOM’s CNT mission involves establishing and supporting CNT networks
and infrastructure, protecting U.S. Armed Forces conducting CNT work,
and providing law enforcement training to host nations in its AOR to
disrupt narco-terrorist activities and organizations. CACI will provide
support in areas such as program management, advisement, training, and
logistics for both CENTCOM and its military and civilian partner
agencies.
CACI has been supporting this CENTCOM mission for the past five years
with its full cadre of subject matter experts in all aspects of CNT.
This team consists of former top-ranking military officers and officials
from civilian agencies intimately involved in CNT work. The high-level
experience of CACI personnel in combatting drug trafficking and
terrorism gives them the functional expertise to support CENTCOM in
developing measurable methods and goals for the program.
John Mengucci, CACI’s Chief Operating Officer and President of U.S.
Operations, said, “This award allows CACI to continue to provide
low-risk, quick-reaction, and agile support for the U.S. Central
Command’s dynamic mission requirements in counter narco-terrorism work.
CACI’s experienced personnel have developed metrics-driven solutions
that ensure accountability for its team and quantifiable results for the
customer.”
According to CACI President and Chief Executive Officer Ken Asbury,
“CACI has built its strategic growth plan around supporting vital U.S.
government missions. Our continued work on this counter narco-terrorism
program is a cornerstone in ensuring the safety of our Armed Forces
conducting this dangerous assignment and ultimately helping to shield
our citizens at home from the ravages of terrorism and drugs.”
