DHS selects Govplace IT offerings for FirstSource program

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS)’s new FirstSource program is designed to consolidate information technology (IT) procurement across the department’s agencies. Govplace, located in Irvine, Calif., has been awarded a contract-with an estimated value of up to $3 billion-for IT products and solutions.

“These contract arrangements will help us speed up the delivery of IT commodities and ensure that we have a flexible and cost-effective process moving forward,” says Scott Charbo, DHS chief information officer. “It will also help further the integration of our information technology systems across the department, which is one of our most important goals.”
