CHANTILLY, Va., Sept. 24, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Engility Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:EGL) won a prime position in August on the U.S. Department of Defense's $28 billion Information Analysis Center Multiple Award Contract, also known as IAC MAC. The company will now bid on task orders valued over $15 million for work in 23 technical focus areas, such as cybersecurity, weapon systems, autonomous systems, critical infrastructure, biometrics and medical-related services.

"DOD has been working on ways to more rapidly deliver needed capabilities to the front line, and I'm glad to see this translate to action," said Lynn Dugle, Engility CEO, chairman and president.
