Support services for functional and technical training are to be provided to the U.S. Marine Corps by Cubic Applications Inc. under a $46.5 million contract. The award was issued by the U.S. Marine Corps Systems Command in support the USMC Marine Air Ground Task Force Training Systems Support effort. The Marine Training System Support program provides the training necessary for USMC senior staff personnel to plan, prepare and execute individual, unit and staff training events within the context of a joint or combined task force environment. Under the three-year contract, Cubic Applications will provide support for warfighting skills training, command post exercises, battle staff training and mission rehearsal exercises. Support will also be provided in the area of C4 mobile training and combat simulation -- from individual training up to and including joint and combined staffs. "This announcement underscores Cubic's continued and trusted partnership with the U.S. Marine Corps," said Bill Toti, president of Cubic Mission Support Services. "We are honored to be selected for this marquee program and to provide the essential functional and technical training services necessary for combat readiness." Added Al Sargeant, senior vice president of Cubic's Strategic Solution Group: "As a training innovator, we are excited to be part of the U.S. Marine Corps' global solution to improve the warfighting skills of senior expeditionary force commanders and their staffs around the world."
