FAIRFAX, Va., Oct 23, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- MANT | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- ManTech International Corporation (Nasdaq:MANT) announced that it was awarded an Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to provide a full range of program management support services to the nation's Secure Border Initiative (SBI).
