CACI International Inc. (originally California Analysis Center, Inc., then Consolidated Analysis Center, Inc.) is an American multinational professional services and information technology company[3] headquartered in Northern Virginia.[4] CACI provides services to many branches of the US federal government including defense,[5][6] homeland security, intelligence,[7] and healthcare.[8]
CACI has approximately 23,000 employees worldwide.[1]
CACI is a member of the Fortune 1000 Largest Companies,[9] the Russell 2000 index,[10] and the S&P MidCap 400 Index.[1]
CACI was founded by Herb Karr and Harry Markowitz, who left RAND Corporation in 1962 to commercialize the SIMSCRIPT simulation programming language.[11][6][12] The company went public in 1968.[1] "CACI", which was originally an acronym for "California Analysis Center, Incorporated",[13] was changed to stand for "Consolidated Analysis Center, Incorporated" in 1967. In 1973, the acronym alone was adopted as the firm's official name; reflecting the name customers had grown familiar with.[14]
Their CACI Limited (UK) subsidiary was founded in 1975.[15]
In February 2020, CACI announced the hiring of former White House staffer Daniel Walsh as corporate strategic adviser and senior vice president.[16]
In April 2022, CACI announced that it had been awarded the Gold Edison Award, for its critical data dark web analysis intelligence platform DarkBlue.[17]
CACI's SIMSCRIPT software product line added object-oriented capability,[55] and added a new government contracting area: Space.[56]
On June 9, 2004, a group of 256 Iraqis sued CACI International and Titan Corporation (now L-3 Services, part of L-3 Communications) in U.S. federal court regarding CACI's alleged involvement in the Abu Ghraib torture and prisoner abuse. Details are still, in 2019, under review by authorities,[57][58][59] and also as of 2023, where a judge refused CACI's 18th dismissal request.[60]
A 2017 story in The Washington Post reported that "a group of former Iraqi detainees got to make the case before a judge ... that they were tortured and that the contractor CACI International is partly to blame."[61]
As of April 2024, an Alexandria, Virginia federal civil jury was deliberating whether to hold CACI liable for its employees' torture of three Iraqi citizens at Abu Ghraib.[62][63]
Depending on the focus (USA, International), competitors to CACI include Accenture, Capgemini, Infosys, Leidos, and Booz Allen Hamilton.[64][65]
