FAIRFAX, Va. --(Business Wire)-- June 26, 2006 -- ICF International announced today that it was awarded a blanket purchase agreement (BPA) to supply professional and program management support services to all components of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The agreement, with an estimated potential value of US$500 million or more over five years, is part of the Department's effort to increase competition and efficiency through strategic sourcing.
"We are very excited for the opportunity to apply the broad program management capabilities and deep homeland security experience of ICF and our teaming partners to support the DHS mission," says Ellen Glover, an executive vice president at ICF and recognized leader in technology and management solutions.

The ICF team includes Robbins-Gioia, AOC Applied Technologies, ICOR Partners, HW&W, KeyLogic Systems, and Mason Harriman Group.
