Former executives at QuantaDyn, an Air Force official and two former Booz Allen Hamilton program managers ran a decade-long conspiracy to influence contract awards.
A decade-long bribery and fraud scheme orchestrated by a Booz Allen Hamilton subcontractor has resulted in multiple criminal convictions, which has led the company to agree on a $15.9 million settlement for alleged violations of the False Claims Act.
The case goes back a decade and involves Booz Allen Engineering Services, a business the firm formed in 2012 when it acquired ARINC.
Executives at QuantaDyn, a Booz Allen subcontractor, paid bribes to an Air Force employee for inside information and to influence award decisions. Two Booz Allen employees were also involved.
In settling with Booz Allen, the Justice Department is not claiming any liability on the part of the company.
But the two former Booz Allen employees, the QuantaDyn executives and the Air Force official have all since been criminally prosecuted.
The group operated a scheme between 2007 and 2018 that involved sharing contract and budget information, a competitor’s bid and proposal information, and source selection information.
