MCLEAN, Va., Jan. 3 (UPI) -- U.S. Army installations in the United States are to receive environmental remediation support services from SAIC.

Science Applications International Corp. said the prime contract from the U.S. Army Environmental Command is a multiple-award, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity vehicle. It has a term of five years and is worth a total of $240 million to all awardees.

Nine companies have received the contract and will compete for task orders under it.

"This contract award represents a tremendous opportunity for SAIC to develop and apply solutions to difficult environmental problems and insure the safety of military communities," said JT Grumski, SAIC senior vice president and business unit general manager.

SAIC said that under the award it will compete for task orders to develop technical and regulatory solutions to environmental clean-up issues.

The U.S. Army Environmental Command manages the Army's cleanup and environmental quality programs.
