Contracts

1
Contractor: Anteon Corp.
Fairfax
Value: $850 million over 10 years

Issuer: General Services Administration

Fairfax-based Anteon Corp., a technology solutions and software company, has been supporting the federal government and the private sector for more than 20 years.

In early 1990, it won its first contract with the U.S. General Services Administration — a 15,000-employee agency that negotiates contracts between the private sector and federal agencies.

In 1999, the GSA awarded Anteon its fifth major nationwide contract, worth $850 million over 10 years, to provide information technology services to federal agencies in Arizona, California, Hawaii, Maryland, Nevada, Virginia and Washington, D.C.

The GSA’s "Applications ‘n Support for Widely-diverse EndUser Require-ments" (Answer) contract is a follow-up to Anteon’s current contracts in the Pacific Rim and National Capital Regions.

The contract is service-oriented, not product-oriented, according to Noreen Centracchio, Anteon’s group vice president of GSA programs.

"We’ve been a partner with the GSA now for more than 10 years. We do a sizable amount of our business using GSA contracts," Centracchio says. Anteon was picked for this major contract, says Centracchio, "because of our high-quality past performance and our long-term history."

Anteon, which is the largest of 10 vendors to be awarded the Answer contract, will have almost 450 people working on the contract by April.
