FALLS
CHURCH, Va. – January 28, 2010 – The U.S. Department of State has
awarded DynCorp International (NYSE:DCP) a task order for operations
and maintenance support in Liberia, under the AFRICAP contract. The
task order, with a value of $5.2 million for the initial 6 month base
period, has a potential total value of $20 million over two years if
all options are exercised.
Under the task order, DynCorp
International will provide operations and maintenance support for
facilities of the Armed Forces of Liberia at Edward B. Kesselly
Barracks and Camp Ware in Liberia. Services provided will include

Peacekeeping contract, DynCorp International recruited, vetted, and
trained the basic infantry and non-commissioned officers of the new

in Africa by building the capacity of African countries and regional
organizations to prevent, manage and resolve conflicts.

contributing to peace and stability in Liberia,” said DynCorp
International CEO William L. Ballhaus.
