LOGCAP IV

LOGCAP — Logistics Civil Augmentation Program — is an Army initiative to hire civilian contractors to perform services supporting the U.S. military in wartime and other contingencies. Use of contractors allows military units to focus on combat operations.

Job opportunities in Iraq and/or in Afghanistan, are available and I have composed a useful list of companies and Task Orders for you. It helps if you have military or LOGCAP experience, but some companies hire personnel without it.

A lot of the jobs are by contract only. The contracts are usually for one year at a time. Some give you a monthly salary. Others pay you a base salary plus hazard duty pay because you are in a war zone.

Competition for these jobs has stiffened in the last few months as the economy sinks in the United States.

The new task orders are the continuation of the Army’s plan to transition work from the single-award LOGCAP III contract to the multiple-award LOGCAP IV contract. So far, there have been 10, possibly 11, task orders awarded under LOGCAP IV.
