24 April 2021: VSE Corporation recently announced about USD37.5 million new contracts with the US Air Force and US Government foreign ally. Activity under both contracts is expected to commence during the second quarter 2021. As per the contract VSE will provide corrosion control treatment, prevention and repair maintenance on the E-2D Advanced Hawkeye aircraft and associated support equipment for three years. Apart from this VSE will also support the VAW-120 Fleet Replacement Squadron attached to the Airborne Command & Control and Logistics Wing at Naval Station Norfolk, Virginia.
“These contract awards reflect the continued execution of our Federal & Defense Services’ vehicle and aviation MRO strategy introduced last year, one that emphasizes multi-year growth in higher-margin segment backlog,” said John Cuomo, President and CEO of VSE Corporation. “We continue to pursue new niche MRO opportunities with US and allied foreign militaries as we leverage our technical expertise and proven project management capabilities.”
“We remain focused on growing our MRO capabilities through a combination of both organic and inorganic growth, while pursuing less commoditized, higher-margin opportunities,” said Robert Moore, Federal & Defense Services Group President. “We are honored to have been selected for these awards following competitive bidding processes. We look forward to providing our customers with world-class, on-demand MRO support to ensure continued operational readiness of their mission-critical assets.”
The second contract is to provide maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) services for more than one hundred Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles (FMTV) and FMTV companion trailers for a US Government foreign ally for approximately one year. This work will be performed at VSE’s Vehicle MRO facility in Texarkana, Arkansas.
