We are doing exactly this.  By using SetCIDName and adding
what we want.  

Here is what mine looks like:

[incoming]
exten => 1234567890,1,SetCIDName(Company A)
... Normal dialplan stuff here.

Note: This sets the caller id name to "Company A" if you
	currently receive a value in the name field you would 
	need to change this to append the text to it.  
	(Since we don't receive a name via our PRI we just
	set the value.)
