About this award

The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service awarded a $10.42 million firm fixed-price Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) call to Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) for operation and maintenance of the Anti-Fraud Locator Using Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) Retailer Transactions (ALERT) system. The contract, awarded March 1, 2025, extends through March 15, 2028, and supports the USDA's Department of Agriculture Information Technology Support Services (DAITSS) program. SAIC will ensure continued system operations while implementing system enhancements to ALERT, which serves as a critical fraud detection tool for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) by monitoring EBT retailer transactions. This work aligns with the Food and Nutrition Service's mission to prevent program fraud and maintain the integrity of federal nutrition assistance benefits. The contract carries no small business set-aside designation, consistent with SAIC's classification as a large prime contractor.

SAIC, headquartered in Reston, Virginia where the performance location is also based, is a major systems integration and professional services firm with extensive experience across federal civilian and defense agencies. The company maintains a robust portfolio of IT modernization, systems engineering, and technical support contracts valued in the billions, including significant work for civilian agencies such as the IRS, FDA, FAA, and State Department. While major subcontractors for this specific ALERT effort were not identified in the award documentation, SAIC routinely engages established partners including Northrop Grumman, Leidos, and Booz Allen Hamilton on its federal contracts. This contract award represents SAIC's continued engagement in mission-critical technology operations supporting federal benefit program integrity.
