CACI Bags $31m Contract From Norfolk To Assist FAST

CACI International has received a contract from the fleet and industrial supply center, Norfolk, Detachment Philadelphia, to provide technical services to support Fleet Assistance and Shipboard Training (FAST) program.

According to CACI, the contract, which is for one base year with four one-year options, has a current value of $31m which could increase to $190m if all options are exercised. CACI will perform the work at various US Navy and Marine Corps facilities stateside, overseas and on board naval vessels. The company is likely to enhance its efficiency in logistics analysis and training owing to this contract.

The FAST program provides a range of support for afloat and deployable automated supply management programs and services for Navy and Marine Corps. This support consists of on-site assistance, training, and analysis, formal training, database validation, correction, reconciliation and inventory reconciliation.

CACI's role is to provide FAST users with logistics, inventory, training, and financial management solutions, which help improve automated supply operations and fleet readiness. The FAST program focuses on program-level, user-level and other functional solutions, which address and resolve supply problems from an applications, systems, and training perspective. CACI also supports the design, prototyping and evaluation of new logistics applications and concepts.

Paul Cofoni, president and CEO of CACI, said: “Serving the nation's highest priorities has always been high on our agenda at CACI. This important award is very welcome, as it enables us to support and enhance the highest levels of readiness for the Navy and the Marine Corps as they carry out their missions around the world.”
