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.

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".
