CACI Awarded $125 Million Prime Contract to Provide Software Engineering
Support for Deployed U.S. Army Systems

Continuing Work with Communications-Electronics Command Helps Warfighters
In-theater Enhance Mission Readiness, Efficiency, and Safety

ARLINGTON, Va., June 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CACI International Inc
(NYSE: CACI) announced today that it has been awarded a $125 million prime
contract to support the U.S. Army's Communications-Electronics Command's
(CECOM) Fires Software Engineering Division (FSED) in providing software
engineering support for fielded fire support systems.  The award, for one base
year and two option years, was competitively awarded under the Army's
Strategic Services Sourcing (S3) contract vehicle. The work increases both the
size and scope of CACI's software engineering business through its C4ISR
(command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and
reconnaissance) functional core competency. The task order brings the total
amount of S3 awards to CACI to nearly $2 billion.

FSED is responsible for providing software engineering support for U.S. Army
and other DoD organizations that are developing command and control, target
acquisition, meteorological, fire direction, and fire control software
intensive systems. The organization supports fielded fire support systems
through software enhancement, maintenance, worldwide fielding, and post
fielding support.

Team CACI consists of primary subcontractors Technology Service Corporation
and Techrizon, which has supported FSED for over 30 years, and other key and
essential members. The companies will provide system and software engineering
support services for a variety of field artillery and fires systems including
command and control, fire support, meteorological measuring systems, several
variations of Firefinder Radar Systems, and Lightweight Counter Mortar Radar
systems. The CACI team stands ready to support the Army's migration to
emerging network-centric architectures in support of FSED's mission.

According to Bill Fairl, CACI's President of U.S. Operations, "We are pleased
to work with a new client, the Fires Software Engineering Division, and
continue the support that our partners have provided for some three decades.
In addition, providing tactical software support for this award enhances our
C4ISR footprint in the market."

CACI President and CEO Paul Cofoni said, "This new S3 task order indicates the
high level of confidence the Army has in CACI's abilities to support the U.S.
Armed Forces' most critical in-theater missions. We're gratified that the
expertise our team provides will directly help the nation's warfighters
operate worldwide with greater effectiveness and safety."
