Accenture Federal Services wins Greater Washington Government Contractor of the Year

The Northern Virginia Chamber of Commerce and Professional Services Council named Arlington-based Accenture Federal Services (AFS) the 2021 Greater Washington Government Contractor of the Year in the over $300 million category during their award ceremony last week.

“I accept this honor on behalf of the 12,500 people who every day do extraordinary work to serve our clients and our community,” AFS CEO John Goodman said in a statement. “I am enormously proud of what we have accomplished together over this past year to help our federal government clients solve their most complex challenges and meet their missions. Thank you for making this a truly remarkable year for Accenture Federal Services.”

This year’s event was the 19th annual Greater Washington Government Contractor Awards ceremony. The Contractor of the Year award is “presented to a Greater Washington-area government contractor for distinguished financial and operational accomplishments and for outstanding contributions to its employees, the government contracting industry and the U.S. government in the past year.”

Fairfax-based Kreative Technologies LLC was the winner for the up to $25 million in revenue category. Reston-based Metron Inc. took home the award for the $25 million to $75 million range. Sterling-based REI Systems Inc. won Contractor of the Year, $75 million to $300 million.
