Fluor Tapped for US Army AFRICOM and SOUTHCOM Logistical Support
Fluor has been selected by the U.S. Army as the Logistics Civil Augmentation Program (LOGCAP) IV contractor to provide regional forward planning support for both the Africa Command and Southern Command.AFRICOM includes the countries within Africa, the African Union and African regional security organizations, while SOUTHCOM includes Central America, South America and the Caribbean.
The award is part of a new approach by the U.S. Army to align the current LOGCAP IV contractors with the six Department of Defense Geographic Combatant Commands that are responsible for effective command and control of U.S. military forces in peace and war, Fluor said in a statement.
The Houston-based engineering company is one of three contractors selected to work on the LOGCAP IV indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract. As a result of the announcement, Fluor will assign a LOGCAP planner to the AFRICOM headquarters in Stuttgart, Germany, and the SOUTHCOM headquarters in Miami, Fla.
“From the work we do through our commercial Energy & Chemicals and Mining business lines to our work serving the U.S. Government, Fluor has extensive experience in Africa and the Americas,” said Bruce Stanski, president of Fluor’s Government Group. “Regionally aligning LOGCAP IV will provide an improved rapid response capability for contingency operations and increase mission efficiencies.”
