CACI Awarded $1.5 Billion Contract for USCENTCOM Operations

CACI International has secured a five-year contract with a $1.5 billion ceiling to provide intelligence and operational support to U.S. Central Command. The company expects the deal to contribute $1.2 billion in total bookings.

The award includes a one-year base period followed by four one-year option periods. CACI will deliver analytical capabilities to support operations within the USCENTCOM area of responsibility.

"CENTCOM operates in one of the world’s most challenging regions, where intelligence must move quickly from insight to action. CACI brings the knowledge and advanced capabilities to help U.S. and partner forces act with speed, clarity, and confidence in support of our national security interests," said John Mengucci, CACI President and Chief Executive Officer, in a statement regarding the award.

Scope of the Apollo Program

The contract is part of the company's Apollo initiative. It focuses on integrating intelligence data to assist decision-makers. By providing technical and operational support, CACI intends to improve the transition from raw data collection to intelligence for military commanders.

For defense contractors, long-term, multi-year contracts provide revenue stability. The $1.2 billion expected booking value represents a large portion of the total contract ceiling, reflecting the scale of services to be delivered over the five-year performance window.

Market and Financial Context

This announcement follows CACI's ongoing efforts in the federal IT and intelligence services market. As of September 18, 2026, CACI International stock traded at $626.85, a 1.28% decline for the session.

The USCENTCOM contract is part of a series of federal awards for intelligence infrastructure. These programs address the complexity of data processing in conflict zones, where the Department of Defense prioritizes the speed of information delivery. The integration of these services supports U.S. forces and allied partners operating in the region.
