The federal government is looking to pay technology contractors in seven different areas to help implement a border agreement with the United States, including positions for web architects, project management and business analysts.

The government is looking for up to 21 different contractors, according to a post on government contracting site Merx. The contracts will be for two years each, with options for the federal government for the following five years.
