Work will be performed both in a combat area of operations operating in an austere environment (35 percent); Lansing, Mich., (35 percent); and Texarkana, Texas, (30 percent), and work is expected to be completed by Apr. 2009. Contract funds will not expire by the end of the current fiscal year. This contract was competitively procured. The Marine Corps Systems Command, Quantico, Va., is the contracting activity.

Editor's Note: "... Canada’s international contracting agency, CCC negotiates and executes bilateral government-to-government contracts to meet allied militaries’ defence requirements. ... For fifty years, CCC has been responsible for helping Canada meet its commitments under the Defence Production Sharing Agreement (DPSA), put in place to foster a strong and integrated North American defence industrial base."
