Accenture‘s (NYSE: ACN) federal services business has secured a position under a potential five-year, $500 million blanket purchase agreement to support a shared services program at the Agriculture Department.
Accenture Federal Services is one of nine contractors eligible to compete for task orders to help USDAs Office of the Chief Financial Officer implement shared services across the department, Accenture said Wednesday.
