GAITHERSBURG, MD. – CNSI announced today that it recently won a contract from the U.S. Census Bureau to provide Program Support to the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) in establishing and supporting several Centers of Excellence within the Center for Applied Technology (CAT) at the Bureau.

“As the agency closes out the 2010 census tasks and prepares to support a decade of surveys and censuses leading up to the 2020 decennial, it is looking at leveraging the Centers of Excellence to institute key reforms as identified by Dr. Groves, the Bureau Director, ” said Dr. Vivek Gore, CNSI’s senior vice president who manages the project at the Bureau’s headquarters in Washington, DC.

The Centers of Excellence include: Data Management; Enterprise Content Management; Mobile Computing (devices and apps); Business Process Modeling; Analytics and Data Visualization; and Enterprise Services.
