Laid off from CACI.

What CACI layoffs have meant for employees

CACI's government work comes through contracts, and its fiscal 2026 annual report lays out the cycle they follow. When a contract expires and the customer still needs the service, there's frequently a competitive rebid, and the company says there's no assurance it will win any particular bid or replace business it loses. Variations in its business may occur when major contracts expire, until they're renewed or new work comes in, the same report says, while terminations for the government's convenience have been rare. When a CACI filing in our WARN filings tracker names the place where you work, it's worth getting clear on which contract you were working under and whether that work was rebid or ended.

Some places recur in the tracker. Norfolk, Fort Detrick and Springfield, Virginia have each had more than one CACI filing, some of them a year or two apart, so an earlier filing in one of those places hasn't always been the last one there. If you work in one of them, you can look back at the earlier CACI filings there in the tracker. The filer names shift from one notice to the next, among them CACI Technologies, CACI-ISS, CACI, Inc. - Federal and, once, CACI NAVSEA03S Digital & Industrial Operations, but each is a CACI name, and each is a name to try if you search a state's own WARN list.

CACI kept buying companies through its 2026 fiscal year, eight in three years by the annual report's count. Separately, the Six3 Advanced Systems, TICOM Geomatics, Ascent Vision Technologies and Mastodon Design plans were merged into the $MART Plan at the start of 2024, according to the $MART Plan's 2025 report, with their participants' accounts transferred into it. If you had an account in one of those four plans, it was moved into the $MART Plan, and the same report put the company match, when it's made, at 50% of the first 8% of pay that eligible participants defer.

For the Millington workers, Tennessee has already named who handles the follow-up. The Greater Memphis rapid response team, which the Greater Memphis Chamber employs, has been notified so that it can coordinate services with CACI and the affected employees, Tennessee's June 15 memo says, and the Greater Memphis Local Workforce Development Board will be responsible for overseeing and following up on rapid response and dislocated worker services for this layoff. If you're one of the workers on that notice, those are the two local bodies the state has put on it, one to coordinate services and one to oversee them.

The three newest notices with a state record behind them, at Fort Detrick, Shaw Air Force Base and Millington, were all classified as permanent, as a permanent layoff or a mass layoff with no recall, in Maryland's 2024 WARN log, South Carolina's 2025 WARN report and Tennessee's memo, which is how each of those records classifies the notice it lists. If you're among the people on one of those notices, that classification is a reason not to count on a recall while you weigh unemployment, another job or any severance that's offered.

CACI's two newest filings went to Tennessee and South Carolina, Tennessee's the only CACI filing of 2026 in the tracker, and Virginia and Maryland have older ones. How a claim is filed in each of those states is set out under Tennessee unemployment benefits, South Carolina unemployment benefits, Virginia unemployment benefits and Maryland unemployment benefits.

What to do if you're laid off from CACI

• File for unemployment in the state where you worked. Benefits run from your filing date, and severance usually doesn't block you. CACI's biggest hubs: Virginia, Tennessee, South Carolina, Maryland. Somewhere else? Every state is here.
• Apply for financial and hardship assistance. Unemployment supplements income, but food benefits, health coverage and utility help are often available as well. Here's some of what CACI's hub states run: Virginia, Tennessee, South Carolina, Maryland, and every other state is here.
• Mind the health insurance window. Losing coverage opens a 60-day special enrollment period, and an ACA plan usually beats unsubsidized COBRA. Compare your options before the employer coverage lapses, and read how the COBRA clocks run if you are weighing it seriously.
• Get your real runway number. Severance plus savings divided by reality. The calculator takes five minutes.
• Know which clocks are already running. Severance review windows, COBRA election, visa grace periods, and 401(k) rollovers all run on federal deadlines that started at termination. All five deadlines are here.
