The General Services Administration is trying to drum up business for its new call center program, which helps agencies set up offices to field phone calls and e-mails from citizens.
Last July, GSA launched the program, called FirstContact, and selected five companies to compete for call center work across government: Aspen Systems, ICT Group Inc., Pearson Government Solutions, TeleTech Government Solutions, and Datatrac Information Services Inc.
Since then, GSA has issued two task orders, one worth about $30 million for the agency itself and another worth about $500,000 for a temporary Federal Emergency Management Agency center set up after the Florida hurricanes.
