Under the contract, the company will provide individual, collective and unit counter-improvised explosive device (C-IED) training and training-related support for the Joint Center of Excellence’s (JCOE) Joint Counter IED Integration Training Programme (JCITP).
CACI chief operating officer and US Operations president John Mengucci said the counter-IED award further distinguishes the company as a premier provider of services and solutions in the asymmetric warfare business domain.
"With asymmetric warfare becoming more common, and the use of IEDs becoming more prevalent around the world, our government customers know they can count on CACI to help them combat this weapon of strategic influence," Mengucci said.
CACI president and chief executive officer Ken Asbury said: "CACI’s comprehensive, defined, and complete training solutions in C-IED work and other mission-critical areas help enhance workforce capabilities and help improve performance across the government."
