BROWN & ROOT AWARDED ARMY SUSTAINMENT CONTRACT
DALLAS, Texas -- Brown & Root Government Services, a
business unit of Halliburton Company (NYSE-HAL), will continue
logistics support services through the duration of Operation
Joint Guard in the Balkans. The U.S. Army awarded the $137.9
million contract through May 1998 with two six-month option
periods, which would bring the total contract value to $270
million.
Since November 1995, Brown & Root has provided engineering
and logistics services under the Army's Logistics Civil
Augmentation Program (LOGCAP) contract. The LOGCAP program uses
a civilian contractor to provide logistics services to U.S.
troops deployed during contingency operations. Brown & Root's
new logistics sustainment contract is not part of the LOGCAP
program.
"This contract helps provide a continuity of service to the
8,500 U.S. troops currently in the Balkans," says Randy Harl,
president, Brown & Root Government Services. "Our troop support
has offered a significant cost savings to the government, and we
plan to continue to provide complete and cost effective service
for this critical mission."
