Science Applications International Corp. (SAIC) is challenging a $1.4 billion contract awarded to Accenture Federal Services for the Army Corps of Engineers' Castle-Net cybersecurity system. The task order was issued in mid-January through the Alliant 2 procurement vehicle and is part of a five-year initiative to enhance the Corps' IT, cybersecurity, and information management services.

SAIC's challenge was filed with the Government Accountability Office following the Defense Department's enhanced debriefing process. A total of six companies, including SAIC and Accenture, submitted bids for this task order.
