Today’s Arctas activity came with scale. M&A, repeat winners, and major health and national security awards put several companies firmly in the spotlight.
M&A and talent movement set the early pace. ITC Federal drew attention after acquiring Capgemini and launching ITC Digital Solutions, expanding its national security and digital modernization capabilities. Christel “Crystal” Compton also surfaced with a move to TekSynap supporting FedCiv.
CACI generated significant engagement with three major awards across VA, DHS, and Navy. The company beat out four competitors to secure a $150M VA Integrated Financial and Acquisition Management System Support contract, added a $150M ICE Nationwide Tactical Communications Infrastructure Rapid Deployment and Support task, and secured a $33M Navy Reserve Forces Command N6 Business Application Support award. Tria also moved up with a $120M VA VHA VCC Program Support task, while DCG added VA My HealtheVet Web Content Development and Management Support work.
