Business Wire
Accenture Federal Services has been awarded a five-year,
$232 million contract to help the U.S. Marshals Service (USMS)
implement its Mission Modernization Program, which will provide
mobile capabilities and real-time decision-making with an
enterprise data solution to improve data accessibility through an
intuitive, user-centered design.
The new IT system that Accenture will deploy under the contract,
awarded by the General Services Administration Federal Systems
Integration and Management Center, will provide mobile capabilities
and enhance real-time decision-making at USMS. Based on software
from Pegasystems Inc., the software company empowering customer
engagement at the world’s leading enterprises, the system will be
configured with an emphasis on user experience and digital design.
Accenture will also develop an enterprise data solution to improve
data accessibility through an intuitive, user-centered design.
The USMS serves critical law enforcement functions including
investigations, prisoner operations and judicial security. A chief
goal of the Mission Modernization Program is to create efficiencies
by automating re-engineered business processes, giving operational
staff more time to focus on their mission.
“Our team is committed to helping the USMS create a
more-efficient and effective solution that provides mobile and
other improved operational capabilities, enabling staff to spend
more time in the field rather than on administrative functions,”
said Ed Meehan, who leads Accenture Federal Services’ work with
homeland security, law enforcement and first-response agencies.
Accenture Federal Services, a wholly owned subsidiary of
Accenture LLP, is a U.S. company with offices in Arlington,
Virginia. Accenture’s federal business has served every
cabinet-level department and 30 of the largest federal
organizations. Accenture Federal Services transforms bold ideas
