Arotech 14 Million Contract FAAC Incorporated Receives Army Simulator Maintenance Subcontract Valued at Up to $14M
8:05 am ET January 7, 2019 (Globe Newswire) Print
FAAC Incorporated, a unit of Arotech Corporation's [NasdaqGM: ARTX] Training and Simulation Division, announced that it has received a subcontract to support the Army Training Aids, Devices, Simulators and Simulations (TADSS) Maintenance Program (ATMP). The subcontract to ATMP prime contractor, Lockheed Martin Corporation Rotary and Mission Systems, is currently valued at up to $14M over seven years. The first support period through June 2019 has been fully funded with six option periods to cover the remaining period of performance.

FAAC Incorporated will provide technical expertise and staff maintenance positions of various skill levels at Fort Leonard Wood, MO, Camp Shelby, MS, and Camp McCain, MS. On-site personnel will be tasked with supporting Army TADSS at those locations. In addition, as part of Lockheed Martin's core ATMP team, FAAC will have the opportunity to bid on supporting other simulator upgrade/improvement efforts above and beyond the scope of the current support subcontract.

ATMP, a program under the Program Executive Office for Simulation, Training and Instrumentation (PEO STRI), will provide worldwide maintenance support for TADSS, Digital Ranges, and Combat Training Center Instrumentation Systems.

"We appreciate being part of Lockheed Martin's ATMP team and look forward to providing outstanding support to the sites and systems we are responsible for," said Kurt Flosky, FAAC President. "We are excited to expand our on-site presence and leverage FAAC's decades of experience providing and supporting simulation solutions across all of the U.S. Armed Forces, and to contribute to ATMP's success."
