    The U.S. Agency for International Development has tapped Bethesda-based Catapult Technology Ltd. to implement a USD58.7 million contract aimed at providing information technology and communications services to the agency’s disaster response teams, the Washington Business Journal reports.

    Under the contract, quake-ravaged Haiti will be the first destination for Catapult. The firm will be responsible for program management, system development, operations and maintenance, and communications and field operations support, among others.
