(Last updated Feb 27, 2010) By now everyone knows the Logistics Civil Augmentation Program IV (LOGCAP IV) has been split up and three primary contractors have been approved to submit bid proposals for the individual task orders. The three companies are Fluor, Dyncorp and KBR. I know…old news. But I keep getting asked who has been awarded which task orders. Especially the task orders Dyncorp has been awarded, after the PWC/Agility FUBAR came to light. I figured I could just “google it” get an easy answer and that would be it. Boy was I wrong. The more I read the more confused I got.
I decided to share what I’ve learned. (If you are a LOGCAP contract expert and find I’m in error, please contact me so I can correct it.) Not only are there three companies who have been approved to submit proposals, each company has their own LOGCAP IV contract number. Evidently task order numbers are assigned the next consecutive number under the winning companies contract after they have been awarded. That’s where I got confused, duplicate task order numbers and multiple contract numbers. Unlike LOGCAP III, one company, one contract number. There is also a fourth LOGCAP contractor, SERCO who has been awarded a LOGCAP IV contract for analysis, planning and logistics support. From what I’m told this is primarily administrative.
Dyncorp – Contract # W52P1J-07-D-0007 Dyncorp International is teamed with CH2M Hill for LOGCAP IV. Agility Defense and Government Services (formerly PWC Logistics) was initially a part of this team but was indicted on fraud charges and suspended from Government contracting pending investigations.

However, both the value and the performance period of the task order can be expanded as the need for services provided under LOGCAP expands.
KBR – Contract # W52P1J-07-D-0009
- Task Order 1 – Program Management Office Staffing – $852K
- Task Order 2 – CTP – Corps Logistics Support Services (CLSS), Theater Transportation Mission (TTM), Postal Services, Ice Plant Operations, and some Air Terminal Operations to support the U.S. armed forces throughout Iraq – $2.345B.
- Task Order 3 – Support U.S. Army and Navy missions at five sites in Bahrain. The Period of Performance is one base year plus one option year and is valued at approximately $28M.
SERCO – Contract # W52P1J07D0010 – Services in support of analysis, planning support and logistics – $45 M for the one base year with four option years with a total evaluated value of $225M.
Forseti recently published a post about KBR and LOGCAP IV task orders HERE. According to internet sources yet to be confirmed, there are a total of 11 task orders for LOGCAP IV. Seven of which have been awarded so far, not to include Task Order 1 for each contract, that’s administrative. That means there are still four task orders to be awarded, most likely for Iraq.
I believe there is only one LOGCAP IV task order up for grabs right now and that’s the Corp Logistics Support, Transportation and Postal(CTP) task order in Iraq. It’s similar to the current Theater Transportation Mission (TTM) task order currently in place. With Dyncorp teamed with Agility and with Agility currently suspended from any future contracts, I’d say Dyncorp is out. KBR could get it, but but I doubt it. I think the DoD wants to shy away from anymore bad KBR press. I think Fluor will get it, call it woman’s intuition.
Keep in mind KBR is still deeply entrenched in Afghanistan working under LOGCAP III. As Fluor and Dyncorp transition the camps and Forward Operating Bases KBR should be phased out. I don’t know if they will ever be completely out of Afghanistan. They aren’t going to go willingly.

I spent two months with Fluor in FOB shank on Task order 2 as a work control supervisor. This company likes to sing it’s own praises but is the most unprofessional company I ever worked for. They are signing to say they are maintaining assets when they have no idea where half of them are. I hope uncle Sam catches up with this bunch and nails them
2 Months! I’m suprised you lasted that long! KBR (Keep Bringing Retards). I pray Fluor comes to Iraq with the Logcap 4 O&M Contract and sends home Hundreds of KBR employees with Fake Credentials working in the Trades, Most of the worst liars are in Management.
It’s like this. Family is the only one who can insult family. If you haven’t worked for KBR and YOU HAVEN’T you have not earned the right to insult!! That is the same level of arrogance that will sink Fluor. Fluor, of whom is sucking up KBR reject managers like there’s no tomorrow. The only bright spot in the whole KBR contract is the boots on the ground workers. They were able to get at least some of the work done in spite of KBR management.
Thank you Deb – there are a LOT of hard working people doing a LOT of GOOD work.
You damn right there are and if those empire building incompetent managers would get the hell out of their way and let them do their jobs I probably wouldn’t even have anything to blog about. I’d just be another one of those “butterflies and rainbows” bloggers!
It’s Fluor not flour another wanna be
Good catch!!
By who Gorco – KBR did not have LOGCAP 2 – Dyncorp Did. Get your facts straight.
And oh by the way – the company was not even named KBR during the POP for LOGCAP II – IT was still BRS.
1. What is the definition of the word “during”?
2. “February 1998: Halliburton and M.W. Kellogg’s parent, Dresser Industries, agree to a $7.7 billion merger directed by Dick Cheney. M.W. Kellogg is merged with Halliburton’s Brown & Root subsidiary to form Kellogg, Brown & Root.”
Relax sail, I know the history, have some fun…
BTW, Ms Sparky, do you have any pictures from the current living conditions with Fluor in AFG?
I have pics of Dyncorp 200+ man tents stacked like sardines living with unvetted TCN’s from God knows where!
I have seen some related to Fluor as well.
Ms. Sparky I would love to see those pics of the tents stacked like sardines… where can I find them?
I’m in the Dyncorp Deployment center right now in Fort Worth TX, awaiting deployment
I’m sorry!
Just to clarify. That’s tents with people stacked like sardines. Let me look for them.
If Ms Sparky is not able to post pictures from Dyncorp-new-hires-tents because of legal issues related to her web site, maybe you can post your Fluor pictures (with people blurred faces) on some other picture-web-host-site and provide us with a direct link in the comments?
Here is a great link sent to me about these and other contracts from our friends at The Project On Government Oversight (POGO.org) http://www.pogo.org/
http://www.ffata.org/ffata/
The Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA) was signed on September 26, 2006. The intent is to empower every American with the ability to hold the government accountable for each spending decision. The end result is to reduce wasteful spending in the government. The FFATA legislation requires information on federal awards (federal financial assistance and expenditures) be made available to the public via a single, searchable website. Federal awards include grants, subgrants, loans, awards, cooperative agreements and other forms of financial assistance as well as contracts, subcontracts, purchase orders, task orders, and delivery orders. The legislation does not require inclusion of individual transactions below $25,000 or credit card transactions before October 1, 2008.
Let me add to the confusion. In addition to the three contracts for contractors supporting operations, there is a fourth contract; the LOGCAP Support Contract.
LOGCAP was designed to include a strong planning function to support the Army, especially the Combatant Commanders. LOGCAP would prepare a World-Wide Support Plan, along with specific regional support plans. These would be developed with the Combatant Commander’s OP Plans for anticipated possible operations in their area.
When I developed the LOGCAP IV strategy, to include competition for operation support among three contractors, we spent a bit of time considering how the planning function would be done. We decided a fourth contractor, who would not do any operations, would develop plans that each of the operational contractors could perform.
I anticipated that we would obtain the services of a strong contractor such as SAIC or Booz Allen. However, the Army had already hired, on a sole source basis, a contractor named RCI to perform some support functions. They were bought by SERCO, a British company. Evidently the word was out that SERCO would win the support contract so contractors like SAIC and Booz Allen teamed with SERCO, instead of competing. SERCO now has the support contract, W52P1J-07-D-0010. Only one firm competed and they were not up to the SERCO team proposal.
Also, contrary to my plan this contract uses SERCO to provide financial analysis of the operational contractors proposals, instead of DCAA. I consider this an inherently Governmental function. The main result is that DynCorp’s Task Order 2 now has a significant Request for Equitable Adjustment (REA) from the contractor asking for more money.
The Commission on Wartime Contracting has asked the Army to explain why they do not use DCAA and have not received an adequate answer.
I fear that the Army will repeat the mistakes of LOGCAP III on LOGCAP IV because they have not done a real Lessons Learned on LOGCAP III.
I saw the SERCO company name as I was researching. I wasn’t quit sure what that was all about because I hadn’t heard of them before. (I guess the Army forgot to call me and fill me in
) Thank you. I will update the post.
As always you contributions to MsSparky.com are an invaluable resource to our readers. If you ever want to “guest post” let me know.
Hmmm, wonder if this means they are going to soon be giving out the rest of the task orders for Iraq?
To the best of my knowledge they haven’t asked for bids on those task orders.
So no bids have been asked for for say O&M? Strange
Can someone put me in contact with any FLUOR recruiters? Please. Thank you.
Worked for KBR-almost 4yrs in Iraq.the company suchs,but your money is there every month.
