Unisys has won a $650 million single-award Enterprise Computing Center Support contract from the Internal Revenue Service to continue supporting the computer systems the agency uses to process taxes.

Unisys will support and maintain the IRS computing environment, including Unisys ClearPath Dorado servers, the company said.
