FALLS
CHURCH, Va – July 8, 2009 – The Department of the Army has awarded
DynCorp International (NYSE:DCP) and its two partners, CH2M Hill and
Taos Industries (a subsidiary of Agility Defense & Government
Services), a task order for logistics support for the Afghanistan-South
Area of Responsibility (AOR) under its existing LOGCAP IV contract. The
task order value is $643.5 million for the one-year base period. The
task order has a base year plus four one year options with a total
evaluated value of $5.874 billion. The Army has directed DynCorp
International to begin task order performance immediately.
Under
this new task order, DynCorp International will provide existing bases
within the Afghanistan South AOR with operations and maintenance
support, including but not limited to: facilities management,
electrical power, water, sewage and waste management, laundry
operations, food services and transportation motor pool operations.
DynCorp International will also provide various construction services
for additional sites.
“It is a tremendous honor for the DynCorp
International Team to provide logistics support in Afghanistan for the
men and women of the U.S. Army,” said DynCorp International President
and CEO William L. Ballhaus. “I cannot think of a more important
contribution we can offer for our nation’s security, or a better
example of serving today for a safe tomorrow. Through our relentless
focus on performance, compliance, ethics and accountability, the
DynCorp International Team provides the best value for the U.S. Army
and for the taxpayer.”
Under the LOGCAP IV contract, the DynCorp
International Team is one of three providers who will support U.S.
forces worldwide, and is currently providing logistics support in
Kuwait under two separate task orders. DynCorp International holds
several important logistics and contingency contracts for the U.S.
