ICF International announced that it has been awarded a $64 million contract by the Pennsylvania Insurance Department to modernize and operate the state’s environmental claims management system for the Pennsylvania Underground Storage Tank Indemnification Fund (PA USTIF). The award, announced on January 22, 2026, will see ICF build a scalable, cloud‑based Fund Management System that will migrate core applications to the cloud, improve service delivery, and leverage data and automation to streamline state workflows.
The five‑year base period contract includes a five‑year option, giving the Pennsylvania Insurance Department flexibility to extend the engagement. The new platform will provide real‑time analytics, enhance performance, reliability and security, and enable the state to achieve operational and cost efficiencies in its environmental claims process. The modernization effort builds on ICF’s long‑standing relationship with Pennsylvania, which began with a $14.5 million, five‑year contract awarded in 2015 for similar services.
For ICF, the contract is a key win that offsets recent federal headwinds. The company’s Q3 2025 revenue of $465 million fell 9.4% from $517 million in Q3 2024, largely due to a 29.8% decline in federal government revenue. The new Pennsylvania contract adds a substantial state‑government revenue stream that will help diversify ICF’s client mix and support its strategy of expanding higher‑margin commercial and state/local contracts.
Management highlighted the strategic importance of the deal. David Birken, ICF’s senior vice president for digital modernization and experience, said the project “leverages our expertise in applied design, data and leading technologies to simplify and optimize the delivery of government services.” He added that the modernization will accelerate responsible and compliant management across Pennsylvania and improve health and environmental outcomes.
The contract aligns with broader state modernization trends, as governments seek cloud‑based solutions to improve efficiency amid tightening budgets. ICF’s recent announcement of two European public‑sector contracts valued at nearly $300 million underscores a period of substantial contract wins that reinforce the company’s growth trajectory.
The $64 million award is expected to contribute positively to ICF’s revenue mix in the coming years, providing a stable, long‑term partnership that complements the company’s existing federal and commercial contracts.
