CACI Awarded $9.4M Contract to Support USAF System

CACI International Inc announced that it has been awarded a four-year, $9.4 million contract by the Air Force Materiel Systems Group at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, to support the Keystone Decision Support System. The Keystone Decision Support System provides the Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC) a data warehousing technology and architecture for the financial management and logistics information needed to make supply management decisions. CACI will provide a range of software support to maintain and enhance the system. With one base year and three option years, the award opens up a new area of AFMC support for CACI and expands its business in financial management systems and its support to the Department of Defense.

The Keystone Decision Support System provides a comprehensive data warehouse of information on the spare parts required to support all Air Force aircraft. The system obtains data feeds from 11 financial and logistics legacy systems to give AFMC users a full range of information on the prices, availability, supply, and demand for spare parts. AFMC leadership will use Keystone data to allocate over $5 billion annually for reparable spare parts.

Under the terms of the Keystone contract, CACI will provide software development and related services to help the Air Force ensure the timeliness and accuracy of Keystone's information. This includes enhancing the system's interface capabilities to speed data access and delivery, and improving reporting capabilities to increase the breadth, flexibility, and accuracy of data correlations. CACI's demonstrated software development proficiency, AFMC experience, and growing financial management systems expertise were key elements in the company's selection for the award.

According to CACI president of U.S. Operations Ken Johnson, "CACI offers the Air Force Materiel Systems Group independently verified software solutions and deep functional knowledge of their financial and logistics environment. Our support will help ensure that Keystone provides high-quality data to help Air Force experts gain new insight into the supply process and make the best management decisions."
