VIENNA, Va., Sept. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- GRC International (NYSE: GRH) today
reported it has been awarded a cost-plus-fixed-fee contract with a potential
ceiling of $9.8 million over a five-year period for technical support services
for the Office of the Secretary of Defense (Program Analysis and Evaluation)
in support of the Mobility Modeling Program.
    GRCI will provide technical and analytical support for OSD(PA&E)'s model-
based mobility force/strategy evaluations and develop the inter-theater
mobility component of the Joint Warfare System (JWARS) campaign-level
simulation designed for use by Department of Defense(DoD) combatant
commanders, the Joint Staff, the military services and the Office of the
Secretary of Defense.
    The technical and analytical support aspect of this work is a follow-on to
mobility analysis and modeling services that GRCI has been providing
continuously for OSD(PA&E) since 1962. The new JWARS element of the work will
employ state-of-the-art object-oriented analysis and design for the
development of a mobility component integral to the JWARS analytical
simulation. The mobility element can also function in a "stand-alone" mode,
independent of the JWARS combat simulation. When this work is completed, the
Department of Defense will have for the first time the ability to use a single
model to analyze the interplay of logistics flows and combat outcomes as they
bear on defense forces and budgetary considerations.
    In June of this year, GRCI was awarded one of two DoD contracts for
development and fielding of the overall JWARS system. This additional award
for integration of the inter-theater mobility component of JWARS further
underscores GRCI's role as a leader in providing modeling and simulation tools
to DoD. It also continues GRCI's long-standing role as a leading developer of
mobility models.
    GRC International Inc., with headquarters in Vienna, Va., provides
knowledge-based professional services and high-quality technology-based
product solutions to government and commercial customers. GRCI is a publicly
traded company listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol GRH.
