PRESS RELEASE
DynCorp International Has $77 Million LOGCAP IV Task Order In Kuwait
FALLS
CHURCH, Va. – February 18, 2009 – The U.S. Army Sustainment Command has
authorized DynCorp International (NYSE:DCP) to proceed under a LOGCAP
IV task order for support services in the Kuwait Area of Responsibility
(AOR). This task order was awarded to DynCorp International on November
7, 2008, but the award was under a stay-of-performance due to a protest
by the incumbent. The stay-of-performance was lifted February 11, 2009,
following denial of the protest by the U.S. Government Accountability
Office.
This is the first task order award to DynCorp
International under LOGCAP IV. DynCorp International will be
responsible for movement control operations, managing the in-transit
logistics and facilities needed for U.S. military personnel to arrive
and depart the Kuwait AOR. This includes base camp services, life
support and operations and maintenance for U.S. government facilities,
including designated debarkation seaport and airports.
The
potential value of this task order is $77 million for a transition
period and one year at full performance. Up to four option years may
also be awarded at the discretion of the government.
DynCorp
International was also previously awarded a task order for services in
support of the Udairi Army Air Field in Kuwait. This task order has a
value of $20 million, and is currently under a stay-of-performance due
to a protest by the incumbent.
Under the LOGCAP IV contract,
DynCorp International is one of three providers who will support U.S.
forces worldwide with immediate focus on those deployed in the Middle
East. DynCorp International holds several important logistics and
contingency contracts for the U.S. military, and was the sole holder of
the LOGCAP II contract from 1997-2002.
