Since then, CGI has helped OFHEO complete an examinations business process reengineering effort in parallel with regular software release cycles, and ongoing infrastructure and application management support. Additionally, CGI Federal has supported application security, aiding OFHEO’s Certification & Accreditation activities and clearance.
