One possibility, since the donation figures include employees and their families, is that BAH just employs a lot of computer geeks whose own sympathies lie with the techno-hawkish wing of the Democrats. It's also possible that the Democratic party is seen as more technology-friendly in general.

I did come up with an interesting ACLU article about BAH, written in 2006 when there were questions about them having been hired as an "independent" auditor of the CIA and Treasury Department's Terrorist Financial Tracking Program: http://www.aclu.org/pdfs/safefree/boozallen20060914.pdf

It's a good source of information about BAH's history of involvement in things like Total Information Awareness and their heavy lobbying for "increased information sharing, particularly between private corporations and the Federal government."
