Company to leverage its proprietary
Momentum® Acquisitions software to provide a single,
enterprise-wide contract writing and management system
FAIRFAX, VA, July 30, 2019 /PRNewswire/ - CGI (NYSE: GIB)
(TSX: GIB.A) announced it has been awarded a 10-year, $222.9 million contract by the Space and Naval
War Systems Command (SPAWAR) Program Executive Office for
Enterprise Information Systems to develop the electronic
Procurement System (ePS), an end-to-end contract
writing system that will provide U.S. Navy and Marine Corps
personnel with standardized, comprehensive contract and procurement
management for services, supplies, construction and grants. Under
the contract, the Navy and Marine Corps will use CGI's proprietary
Momentum® Acquisitions software to process all
of the Navy and Marine Corps' contract
requirements electronically from inception to closeout,
while incorporating flexibility to interface with
other Department of Defense (DoD), federal, financial and
industry systems.
Momentum Acquisitions' auditability, interoperability and
security will allow the Navy and the Marine Corps to reduce
costs, as the solution relies on highly configurable commercial
off-the-shelf (COTS) software for all of its functionality. This
approach allows for significant centralization that can address the
unique user requirements of individual organizations all within the
same Momentum Acquisitions solution. The ultimate goal is to
deliver a single, enterprise-wide contract writing and management
system designed to put capabilities in the warfighters' hands
faster and more efficiently.
Momentum Acquisitions is a highly configurable commercial
off-the-shelf (COTS) procurement solution specifically designed for
federal acquisition leaders, contracting officers, contract
managers and administrators. Equipped to support the most
up-to-date federal procurement laws, mandates and initiatives and
compliant with all Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR), Momentum
Acquisitions provides agencies with the configurability and
interoperability to support emerging requirements, reduce total
lifecycle costs, reduce risk and increase user acceptance.
Additionally, Momentum Acquisitions supports all stages of the
acquisition lifecycle—from initial planning and sourcing through
post-award, contract management and closeout—enabling team
collaboration using an electronic contract file throughout all
acquisition phases.
CGI was also awarded a contract in 2017 to develop the Army
Contract Writing System (ACWS) which provides the U.S. Army with a
single contract writing system that enables a standardized
acquisition process across the entire enterprise. The result is
that Momentum Acquisitions will ultimately support more than
half of DoD contract spending on services, products, major weapons
systems and grants.
"We're pleased to provide the Navy and Marine Corps with our
Momentum Acquisitions solution to modernize their contract writing
enterprise," said CGI Federal President Tim
Hurlebaus. "We believe that our proven technical and
management approach will help deliver a user-friendly, fully
interoperable, secure and auditable ePS that meets their diverse
and emerging stakeholder requirements and look forward to working
collaboratively with Navy personnel on this all-important
deployment."
