Booz Allen Hamilton Wins $1 Billion CDM Contract Award
Booz Allen Hamilton has won a $1 billion contract to provide a suite of cybersecurity services to six federal agencies, the defense and cybersecurity contractor announced Tuesday.
Under the contract, which will last up to six years, Booz Allen will manage cybersecurity services for the General Services Administration, the Health and Human Services Department, NASA, the Social Security Administration, the Treasury Department and the U.S. Postal Service.
The project is part of a reimagining of the Homeland Security Department’s Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation, or CDM, program, which offers pre-vetted cyber tools to agencies. Under the new system, Homeland Security is re-awarding all four phases of CDM to prime contractors using task orders under the General Services Administration’s Alliant contract, a governmentwide contract vehicle that covers a wide range of technology goods and services. When Alliant phases out, task orders will move under the Alliant II vehicle.
