History
20th century
CACI was founded by Herb Karr and Harry Markowitz, who left RAND Corporation in 19621 to commercialize the SIMSCRIPT simulation programming language. The company went public in 1968. "CACI", which was originally an acronym for "California Analysis Center, Incorporated", was changed to stand for "Consolidated Analysis Center, Incorporated" in 1967. In 1973, the acronym alone was adopted as the firm's official name; reflecting the name customers had grown familiar with. Their CACI Limited (UK) subsidiary was founded in 19751. From 1984 the company was led by CEO Jack London, a former US naval engineer, who later became chairman and died in 20211.
