RESTON, Va., Aug. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- DynCorp, a $2 billion information
technology and outsourcing solutions company, announced today that it has
received an eight-year, $59 million contract to support the Air Force Air
Armament Center's 46th Test Wing at Eglin Air Force Base, Fla. Under the
contract, DynCorp will provide aircraft maintenance services including back
shop and heavy maintenance, phase inspection and aircraft recovery services.
The work will be performed by DynCorp Technical Services LLC (DTS), a
wholly owned subsidiary of DynCorp. DTS's Eglin management team will partner
with the Air Force to cultivate promising concepts and develop them into
processes that will reduce aircraft downtime and improve operational
efficiency. DTS President Ben Medley believes the partnership-based
approach will be especially helpful at Eglin as responsibility for aircraft
maintenance shifts from the Air Force's operations to its logistics component.
"By building flexibility into the organization, DynCorp's Eglin team will
be positioned to meet the dynamic requirements of the base's diverse aviation
operations," said Medley. "We will use that agility to ensure the internal
transition at Eglin is as smooth and seamless as possible."
DynCorp is among the largest employee-owned technology and outsourcing
solutions companies in the country, employing more than 23,000 technology and
technical professionals. DynCorp Technical Services is the company's
strategic business area that provides technical and operational support
services throughout the United States, including aviation maintenance, range
operation and maintenance, logistics services and program management.
