Winning two separate contract awards in as many days, Dynamics Research Corp. (DRC) will develop training technologies for the U.S. Army and the Royal Saudi Air Force.
Under a $1.3 million deal awarded April 9 by the by the Army’s Armor School and Center Directorate of Training, Doctrine, Combat Development and Experimentation, DRC will continue to develop the Heavy Brigade Combat Team Tactical Leaders Course, providing mobile training team instruction to operational units, the company said in a news release.
The project is DRC’s fourth under the Armor School’s indefinite delivery-indefinite quantity contract, which has a $97 million price ceiling.
The day before the Army award, the Andover-based tech company announced it landed a two-year, $1.6 million deal to provide training and support to the Royal Saudi Air Force as a subcontractor to Virginia-based Vangent. DRC will assist Vangent with the conversion of more than 1,400 training modules to a Web-based e-learning platform at the RSAF School of Command, Control and Communications at Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia. DRC will also provide an on-site training manager for system technical support and to train instructors on the new e-learning platform.
The underlying contract, which is through the U.S. Air Force, went to Vangent in late February.
