ADG-REI Technology Ventures Secures $22.3M Contract with HHS Administration for Children and Families

STERLING, Va., Jan. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- ADG-REI Technology Ventures LLC, a joint venture between ADG Tech Consulting LLC and REI Systems, Inc., today announced a contract award valued at $22.3 million by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Administration for Children and Families (ACF). The contract will support the Child Care Automated Reporting System (CARS), a vital system managing the Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) program.

The Final Rule aims to improve child care access, lower costs for families, and streamline eligibility processes.

"This contract underscores our dedication to driving federal programs that make a real difference for families and communities," said Sandip Ghosh, President of ADG-REI Technology Ventures LLC. "We're excited to partner with ACF to elevate the CARS system, ensuring it delivers lasting improvements to child care programs nationwide."
