WASHINGTON, July 9, 2024

award-winning and fast-growing leader in providing technology and
mission services to National Security and Federal Civilian
customers, has been awarded a 5-year, $8
billion Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) with the U.S.
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). In partnership with

required to address whatever the future might throw at us.

broad range of technical services and include infrastructure

and other critical diverse and innovative IT enterprises. Through
the ITSSS-2 BPA, BE will not only assist in optimizing project and
program success but will augment and defend against future threats
and challenges impacting FBI operations.

modernization and innovation to support the FBI's ever evolving
mission requirements," said Eric
Olson, CEO of BE. "This evolving landscape includes emerging
technical challenges, such as Generative AI and Quantum Computing,

and deployment of new technologies; program management; web
development; and comprehensive support for mobility hardware and
applications.

reliable solutions that enhance national security and protect our
nation's vital information systems," said Matt Zimmerman, MetroStar's VP of National
Security. "With BE, we are honored to support the FBI's mission
through our partnership and look forward to contributing to their
continued success in safeguarding our country."
