Indigo IT Awarded DHS USCIS O365 Migration Support Services Task

RESTON, VA. August 10, 2021 – Indigo IT was awarded a task order to provide Office 365 (O365) Transition and Operational Readiness Support Services to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). This 1-year, $3.3 million contract will allow Indigo IT to continue providing USCIS with support in operating and optimizing their O365 cloud collaboration environment.

“The enablement of the USCIS O365 environment has helped to increase collaboration, streamline operations, and allow for continuity of operations during the global pandemic,” said Abby Smith, Project Manager for Indigo IT’s USCIS O365 contract. “This is a great opportunity to show the benefits of the O365 platform, while ensuring continued operations.”

Indigo IT takes pride in the solutions they provide for USCIS. During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Indigo IT assisted USCIS with continuity of operations using the O365 platform. The O365 platform was mission-critical in assimilating to a telework model and allowing USCIS to continue to work during the pandemic. With the help of Indigo IT’s team, a process was developed and implemented where immigration interviews were conducted on iPads using Microsoft Teams, allowing USCIS to continue to have these interviews safely and continue the work that supports the organization.

Indigo IT Celebrates 2020 Giving Initiative

Indigo IT has proudly held an annual tradition of sponsoring a company-wide giving initiative during the holiday season, where employees are encouraged to donate to either of two selected nonprofit organizations, which the company then matches. This year, Indigo IT selected two nonprofit organizations to support: LINK Against Hunger (LINK) and Willing Warriors. Both of these charities are local to Northern Virginia; LINK being in Sterling, Virginia, and Willing Warriors in Haymarket, Virginia.

While this initiative is long-standing at Indigo IT, this year was especially significant to executive leadership in light of COVID-19. “This past year, while we always find joy in sponsoring our annual Giving Initiative, we felt a different tone when selecting this year’s supported nonprofit organizations,” said Denise Garcia Van Wyngaardt, CEO of Indigo IT. “We have so many communities and so many families who have been hit extremely hard by the continued effects of the pandemic, and we wanted to be sure that the donations our team members kindly contribute would help where it is needed most. We are continually moved every year by the generosity of our employees, and our Holiday Giving Initiative is one of the top highlights of our year.”

Indigo IT and its employees contributed a grand total of $7,520 this year to LINK and Willing Warriors.
