Security software & services provider ManTech International Corporation was recently awarded a contract worth $20 million by the Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Information & Technology, Enterprise Program Management Office. Per the contract, ManTech will offer troubleshooting, systems engineering, software development and operational support services to the telemedicine and VistA Imaging systems division.
Enjoying Cabinet-level status, the Department of Veterans Affairs is a government-run military veteran benefit system. The primary responsibility of the department is to support veterans post the service tenure by providing benefits and support services, such as disability compensation, pension, education, home loans, life insurance, vocational, rehabilitation, survivors’ benefits, health care, and burial benefits.
