McLean, VA, February 17, 2009 – Pragmatics, Inc., a leading provider of information technology solutions and services for the federal government, today announced the award of a task order from the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) Defense Information Technology Contracting Organization (DITCO). This award was made under the ENCORE II Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) contract, which provides information technology support to the Military Agencies, Department of Defense (DoD), and other agencies of the federal government. Pragmatics is one of 26 contractors on ENCORE II. Pragmatics will help to move the Capability-based Decision Support Environment (C-DSE) from a pilot stage to an operational capability to provide a national strategic level of cross-agency capability portfolio management (CPM) for investment decision analysis and support across common mission areas for senior leaders.

The services the Pragmatics team will provide include updates to the senior leadership command, control, and communications overarching architecture views; a demonstration pilot of applied information economics; and assistance with preparation and submission of the DoD Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process for C-DSE.
