CSC RECEIVES $172 MILLION U.S. NAVY TASK ORDER TO PROVIDE OPERATIONS, MAINTENANCE AND LOGISTICAL SUPPORT SERVICES
FALLS CHURCH, Va., Oct. 23 -- CSC (NYSE: CSC) announced today that the U.S. Navy has awarded the company a task order extension to continue providing operation, maintenance and logistical support services for the Southern California Offshore Range (SCORE). The contract has a one-year base period and four one-year options, bringing the estimated total five-year contract value to $172 million. The task order was awarded under the Naval Sea Systems Command SEAPORT-Enhanced contract vehicle, originally awarded to CSC in 2004.
Under the terms of the agreement, CSC will provide comprehensive services to SCORE, the Navy’s premier live-fire, multi-warfare training complex. Services include maintaining the entire range complex, including tracking instrumentation and target resources, as well as planning, briefing, conducting, analyzing and debriefing for more than 1,800 training events per year. CSC’s technical services will support the SCORE mission to improve the combat readiness of Pacific Fleet air, surface and submarine units in all warfare areas.
“The SCORE range is critical to the combat readiness of the Navy’s Pacific Fleet, and CSC’s full range of operational, maintenance and logistical training services keeps range systems in a total state of readiness," said James W. Sheaffer, president of CSC's North American Public Sector line of business. “We are proud to continue our 23-year strategic partnership with the Navy by integrating high-technology applications and operations support to ensure combat readiness.”
The Range Operations Center is located in San Diego, Calif., at the Fleet Area Control and Surveillance Facility, Naval Air Station, North Island. The range covers 100,000 square miles off the coast of San Diego, centering on San Clemente Island (Adversary Island).
