| Obamacare website firm's execs had White House access |
| 2013-10-16 |
| [Wash Examiner] Senior executives from CGI Federal -- the company that won the Obamacare website contract -- enjoyed high-level access to top Obama administration officials, according to White House visitors' logs. Shocking! Bring me the Captain Louis Renault graphic at once ! CGI Federal is the U.S. subsidiary of CGI Group, the Canadian company based in Montreal that won the $93 million contract from the Department of Health and Human Services in December 2011 to build Healthcare.gov, the main Obamacare web site. Prior to the official award, senior CGI executives met with top White House officials and attended a number of invitation-only addresses by President Obama. So much for the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and competitive bids. According to the logs, CGI Federal President Donna Ryan visited the White House six times prior to her company being selected to do the IT design work behind the high-profile website. Bringing many gifts no doubt. |
