New E-Travel System At SSA

From the Federal Times:

The Social Security Administration has signed a contract with CW Government Travel to provide online travel booking and reimbursement services, the company’s chief operating officer said Thursday.

Scott Guerrero told Federal Times that SSA reached a deal with CW on Sept. 28. The company is planning to formally announce the deal Monday, Guerrero said.

SSA is the last federal agency to settle on one of three E-Gov Travel vendors, nearly three years after the General Services Administration’s selection deadline passed.
