BETHESDA, Md., Dec. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Catapult Technology, Ltd., a leading Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned (SDVO) Information Technology (IT) contractor to the federal government, announced successful re-competition on a five-year, $5.8 million contract providing IT support services to the Department of Transportation (DOT), Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA).

- Online Data Entry and Operator Registration System (ODES), an external facing web application.

"Since the start of this contract in 2005, PHMSA has wanted to move to a data-driven architecture," said Randy J. Slager, CEO, Chairman, and founder of Catapult Technology.
