Stanley employees
This week, teams from CGI and Stanley kicked off transition planning activities that will take place over the next few months. The CGI-Stanley transition team will be led by Jim Brabston, COO of Stanley, and Donna Ryan, SVP of CGI Federal, supported by Jo-An Skowronek of CGI and Greg Denkler of Stanley. The transition team is made up of joint working groups. These working groups will review all aspects of the business — e.g., HR, Finance, systems, etc. — and will focus on understanding CGI’s and Stanley’s approaches, capabilities, tools, and processes. Out of this initiative will come a detailed project plan of activities to be implemented upon closing—when we will be one company.
The next big milestone on the acquisition timeline will be an announcement signaling the launch of the tender offer for Stanley stock. We expect this announcement to occur in the next week to 10 days.
Our communications and HR teams are working to provide additional FAQs, as well as information regarding CGI’s published policies on tenure, 401K, education reimbursement and other benefits. Please stay tuned.
We understand you have many questions about the acquisition. Our philosophy is to be as transparent as possible while keeping within our obligation as a public company to operate as a separate, independent entity during the closing process. We will address your questions and keep you updated on acquisition details via this microsite. Until the closing, we will update our frequently-asked questions (FAQ) section. Please visit this site often for updated information.
